After being married for only three weeks, a young Victorian woman finds that her marriage is nothing like she thought it would be. She wants a love affair like she’s read about in novels, but her new husband can’t seem to let go of the past. She travels to the future to find the kind of love story she thought she wanted, but the future isn’t at all what she expected.

Jonas and Amy are best friends who’ve hit a rough patch. Jonas wants a boyfriend and Amy wants to make out with Jonas whenever they’ve had a few drinks. Jonas kicks Amy out of his life for a while and goes to a matching service called The Friend Factory. It connects people in their dreams while the client is asleep. Jonas meets the man of his dreams, but it’s all just a little too perfect. Amy struggles to fix their friendship at all costs. Everything gets really crazy really fast and the lines between dreaming and waking life blur as the lines between friend and enemy become clear as day.

What really happens when the person we love most unravels before our eyes? Unraveled centers on the relationship between a young woman, Joy, and her mother, George, who's dying of cancer. George also suffers from a condition called chemotherapy induced dementia, which has prevented any meaningful connection between the two women for quite some time. Anna, an unusual hospice nurse/avid knitter, comes into their lives and teaches Joy a thing or two about life, loss, and the process of letting go.

If Men are from Mars and women are from Venus, get ready for planets to collide! Nothing is off limits in this wickedly uproarious battle between the sexes in Theresa Rebeck’s new comedy. In Nick and Laila’s historic tavern, the regulars tussle over life’s big questions: male versus female, beer verses wine, possessions versus people. But when Nick considers selling off the bar piece by valuable piece, the sparks–and the drinks and the French fries–really start to fly!
