About this Event

Join us for a night of laughter at 21ten Theatre in Portland!

First, a hilarious, curtain-raiser improv perfomance. Grab a refreshment at concessions, and buckle up for a delightful romp with Maggie through her 10 First Dates. This award-winning one-act comedy comes to Portland all the way from London, England!


ABOUT THE PLAY

After 25 years of marriage, Maggie finds herself newly single and thrown into the chaotic world of modern dating. Armed with nothing but a martini and a sense of humor, she endures 10 wildly different first dates, from a narcissistic influencer to a spiritual guru who won’t stop trying to balance her chakras. As Maggie faces the absurd realities of dating apps, mismatched personalities, and midlife crises, she begins to realize that finding love is more complicated than she ever imagined.**
