FT_Poor Behavior logoPOOR BEHAVIOR
Falcon Theate
Nov. 17-Dec. 2
Newport

Directed by Lauren Carr

Cast: Phineas Clark as Ian, Becca Howell as Ella, Derek Snow as Peter & Torie Pate as Maureen

A weekend in the country for two couples spins out of control when Maureen makes jealous and reckless accusations of infidelity between her husband Ian and their old friend Ella. As Ella’s husband Peter makes a futile attempt to control the domestic carnage, the story develops into a fiercely funny and farcical commentary on the unexpected ease of betrayal and the fragility of marriage.
