This heartbreaking, yet lovely play is snappy and ironic. You'll question the intuition of marriage and the way you value success as you're sucked in turning pages.

The scenes and beats melt into one another like a jazzy melody. The relationships between the characters feel crisp and their banter crackles. The people in this play, even the strangers, needle each other like the way only siblings and old friends can. This is a world where everyone says what the rest of us are too afraid to. Nothing is held back. Everyone is flawed. It's brilliant.

Love is supposed to be a fairytale, right? That is the question asked in Melanie Coffey's "Pros and Cons of Leaving Him at the Altar." A smart play that looks at the complexities of modern romance in all of its glory and horror, this piece questions who we fall in love with, why we fall in love, and the very institution of marriage itself. With characters that are a far cry from the romantic leads of Broadway musicals, this plays looks at love an marriage as they really are, and refuses to pull punches.
