Becky’s New Car

by Steven Dietz

Directed by Sean Langenecker and Megan McGlone

March 28–April 12, 2025 (Comedy | Evjue Stage)

Have you ever been tempted to flee your own life? Becky Foster is caught in middle age, middle management and in a middling marriage — with no prospects for change on the horizon. Then one night a socially inept and grief-stricken millionaire stumbles into the car dealership where Becky works. Becky is offered nothing short of a new life…and the audience is offered a chance to ride shotgun in a way that most plays wouldn’t dare. BECKY’S NEW CAR is a thoroughly original comedy with serious overtones, a devious and delightful romp down the road not taken — and brace yourself for the curves!

The play will be performed without an intermission. After the play, take a brief intermission anyway: members of the cast and the Monkey Business Institute will be performing an improv based upon the play and its characters. Barrels of fun!
