Book Group: A Comedy in Two Acts

Marisa Smith

Set in a small New England college town, Book Group is a delightful character comedy about four women in a book group, Mags, Ellie, Alison, and Fiona, who spend their monthly meetings intruding in each others lives. They save their youngest member, Fiona-the wife of Stuart, a physics professor-from a ruinous affair with her hunky contractor, Nick. The play, narrated by the as-yet-unborn daughter of one of the book group members, dramatizes the redemptive power of literature, love, laughter, and the enduring bond of friendship between women.
