Maytag Virgin is set to weave a tale of love, loss and everything in between at Aurora Theatre, January 11-February 11! When two recent widows find themselves living as neighbors, both coping in their own way with the aftermath of tragedy, they drive each other crazy before finding common ground. Audiences will follow Lizzy Nash as she battles her grief and the quirky behaviors of her new neighbor, odd duck Jack Key, with whom she might have more in common than she realizes. Will this encounter between Lizzy and Jack change their paths and their hearts for good? Kick off the New Year with this non-traditional romance from Aurora Theatre’s 2017-2018 Signature Series!

“Part of what makes Maytag Virgin such a great production is its relatability and raw emotion,” said director Melissa Foulger. “The show connects with audiences because it keeps them cracking up. It balances between approaching sad situations in an uplifting way while it allows audiences to see the good and feel the humor. I’m sure it will resonate with everyone who has ever experienced love and loss on the rollercoaster of romance.”

From the creative efforts of award-winning American playwright Audrey Cefaly, Maytag Virgin is a classic southern love story offering laugh-out-loud comedy and poignant moments from beginning to end. Alabama school teacher Lizzy Nash loses her husband to an unexpected death, leading to her leave of absence. In a stroke of luck and uncanny timing, a very odd yet winsome Jack Key moves in next door. Over the course of a year, the two find themselves frustrated with each other yet drawn together by their shared circumstances. Lizzy struggles with honoring memories and respect for her late husband, while pondering this newly-found neighbor who may give her a second chance at life, love and self-discovery. Fit for teens and adults, this quirky yet heartfelt tale is the perfect way to start the year!

Under the direction of Melissa Foulger, Maytag Virgin stars Suzi Bass award nominee Courtney Patterson as Lizzy Nash and showcases the talents of Brad Brinkley in the role of Jack Key. The show is brought to life by the creative and ingenious design team of Isabel and Moriah Curley-Clay (set), Jordan Jaked Carrier (costumes), Sarah Thomson (scenic artist), Kevin Frazier (lights) and Angie Bryant (sound).
