$You Better Sit Down: Tales from My Parents\u2019 Divorce$

Twin Masks Performing Arts Center is excited to be presenting the play You Better Sit Down; tales from my parents’ divorce by Anne Kauffman, Caitlin Miller, Robbie Collier Sublett, Mathew Maher, Jennifer R. Morris, and Janice Paran. Four of the authors (Miller, Sublett, Maher, and Morris) interviewed their parents about their relationships. The play is based on those interviews.
The play is a charming, heartbreaking, and hilarious account of each relationship, looking at how they met, got married, and eventually divorced, and the events in between.
“In YOU BETTER SIT DOWN the truth about these four defunct marriages is laid bare with simplicity and honesty” – The New Your Times

“Relentlessly entertaining” – The New Yorker

“Wryly entertaining…absorbingly candid.” – The Village Voice
