EXIT PURSUED BY A BEAR by Lauren Gunderson America’s most frequently performed living playwright is coming to THE THEATER PROJECT. (Union, NJ) In this smart, dark revenge comedy, Nan Carter wants to leave her husband Kyle—leave him tied up in a hunting cabin, covered with honey, and ready for bear. But as long as SHE (Brianna Kalisch) has HIM (Scott Cagney) duct-taped to his easy chair, why not do a little consciousness-raising? With the help of her gay friend Simon (Jason Gillis) who acts as her emotional -- and literal – cheerleader, and a stripper named Sweetheart (Alex Andrews), Nan makes her husband watch hilariously twisted re-enactments of scenes from their dysfunctional marriage. Lauren Gunderson’s smart, funny plays about empowered women – real and imagined – have made her one of America’s most popular playwrights.
