“Fierce, Blistering comedy”
“With its crackling satire, comedic timing, and whirlwind of rapid-fire dialogue, it’s an exhilarating 90 minutes of pure theatrical brilliance that you won’t want to miss.”
“Edgy, energetic…Written with sharp wit, unbridled passion and all kinds of adult humor”
All’s fair in love and marital warfare as Lucy and Jerry Green go head-to-head after 30 years of marriage in a late-night tangle of lies, ambition, and betrayal. This wickedly dark new comedy stars leading film and television actor Enrico Colantoni (English Teacher, Galaxy Quest, Veronica Mars), Chicago’s own Rebecca Spence (Jeff Award winner; now starring in The Madison, opposite Michelle Pfeiffer), and Nick Marini (Netflix’s Cobra Kai, Dropout TV). Emmy and Tony Award winner Jason Alexander directs this world premiere theatrical event in his return to Chicago Shakespeare Theater after 2024’s smash-hit Judgment Day. Full of blistering humor and searing revelations, Fault makes the case that being honest with ourselves might just be the trickiest game we play in life and love… but whose fault is that anyways?
