Exit, Pursued By a Bear at Long Beach Playhouse

If the Coen Brothers created a mashup of a Shakespearean revenge tale and an outrageous comedy, it would probably be something like Exit, Pursued By a Bear . Join Nan as she forces her abusive husband, Kyle, to watch her and her over-the-top cheerleading friend, Simon, reenact scenes from their horrible relationship as he's tied to his La-Z-Boy. Will Nan be able to make Kyle see the painful truths of their marriage, or will she leave him to be mauled by a bear at the end of her performance piece? Come see the playwright of Silent Sky, Lauren Gunderson, as she explores the comedy, the pain, and the chance of being eaten, in this comic gem of a play at the Long Beach Playhouse's Studio Theatre.
