Five different women named Betty collide at the intersection of anger, sex and theater in Collective Rage: A Play in 5 Boops. One Betty is a dutiful wife. Another is busy working on her truck. Betty wants to talk about love, while another needs to hit something. Meanwhile, Betty decides to stage a production of that play-within-a-play from some other famous play. This brash uncompromising comedy delivers a knockout blow to a thousand boring tropes about female identity.

"...Five very different Bettys learn to love their pussies, and each other, in Collective Rage: A Play In Five Boops, a tangy new Jen Silverman comedy that may not be to everyone's taste, but offers enough delicious dialog and tasty performances to keep adventurous Boston Court audiences entertained and ultimately maybe even quite moved."

"...One big reason the production succeeds are the performances. Mirto, off-putting in a strident opening monologue that defines her as a clueless white matron, recovers to become three dimensionally empathetic later on. Rackley, as the impossibly naïve Betty 2, rescues the role from developing into a cloying cliche. Anzoategui and Leigh both artfully exploit the foibles of their characters, with Leigh's open and honest Betty 5 emerging as especially endearing. Ultimately, however. it is Lamadrid as the loose-lipped Betty 3 who, bitten by the theater bug, keeps the laughs coming and steals the show."
