Social Security at Newport Playhouse, The

Trendy art gallery owners Barbara and David, have their life upended when Barbara's uptight sister and brother-in-law, Trudy and Martin, deposit their eccentric mother, Sophie, on their doorstep while she and her husband head to Buffalo to rescue their sexually precocious daughter. Sophie is introduced to a suave, aging artist named Maurice who brightens her life in ways she never expected. A Broadway hit, the original production starred Marlo Thomas, Ron Silver, and Olympia Dukakis. "Laugh out loud, joyfully...The play is a hoot, a sophisticated, civilized hoot." N.Y. Post
