A new play is in the works at the Seaway Valley Theater Company, and according to its director, Lacie Petrynka, it’s much more than a comedy. “I like to think of it as a dramady,” explained the smiling theater lover. “There are funny moments in it, but it also contains drama.”When Eddie’s mid life crisis hits, he escapes from his picture perfect family and establishes a swinging bachelor’s pad in New York City, complete with the sexy Miss Tush as his roommate. His new life is a success, so why is he cheat- ing on his wife? She has put her anger at his desertion behind her, done an emotional and physical make over and is moving on with her life. When Eddie is ready to go back home, will it be too late?With a stellar cast made up of Terry Mazerolle as Eddie, Jennifer Robinson as his wife and Melanie Samis as Miss Tush, local theater lovers can be sure that Marriage can be hazardous to your health will deliver. The play will be featured on July 18, 19, 24, 25 and 26 at 7:30 p.m. and July 20 at 1:30 p.m.
