‘Kalamazoo’

Peg and Irv, two quirky but endearing baby-boomers, bravely venture into the world of modern dating. But when these opposites attract, they discover love isn’t any easier the second time around. PEG, a 70-something, Irish Catholic bird lover meets IRVING, a 70-something Jewish, metal detector-toting East Coaster on an online dating site, it feels like love at first click. But after their, crazy margarita-filled first date, complete with body shots and morning-after tattoos, PEG and IRVING find that they still have a little aging to do if they want to forget their past and move forward into a future together. Winner of the Riva Shiner Comedy Award, KALAMAZOO is a romantic comedy about life’s second act and learning you’re never too old to be young. This delightful cross between The Golden Girls and The Odd Couple has made its way around the world, but its original premiere was at the Bloomington Playwrights Project here in Indiana!

Interludes of lively dance music will be performed by the Bloomington-based “Romantic Interlude Trio” made up of Carolyn Dutton on violin, Monika Herzig on piano, and Peter Kienle on Bass.
