It's 1984 and Josephine Rosen has a dead-end job, lives in a suburb of Boston with her mother, and has settled into the uncomfortable comfort of being single at 37. When flirtation with an old classmate and a new friendship at work give her hope for change, she begins taking tentative steps toward a new life. NICE GIRL is a play about the tragedy and joy of figuring out who you are and letting go of who you were supposed to be.

The production team for NICE GIRL includes: Lauren Nigri (scenic design) Noel Huntzinger (costume design), Rebecca Jeffords (lighting design), Sarah Putts (sound design), John Buranosky (properties design), Jason Martin (dialect coach), Sydney Achler (scenic artist), Wilhelm Peters (stage manager), Sapier Weinglass (asst. stage manager), Jordan Porkorney (assistant director), Stephen Johnson (production manager), Diane D. Fairchild (master electrician) and Jonah White (asst. master electrician & asst. lighting design).
