Set in a lavish English country estate in 1923, THE COTTAGE is a wildly entertaining and outrageously funny romantic farce where secrets fly, alliances shift, and passions ignite as Sylvia boldly exposes her year-long affair to both her husband and her lover’s wife. With sharp wit, unexpected twists—including a potentially murderous plot—and a dazzling mix of sex, betrayal, and laughter, this modern twist on a classic British comedy takes you on a rollercoaster of love, identity, and fate that will keep you laughing and gasping until the final curtain. Director David E. Shane leads Buffalo's comic actors Chris J Handley and Tracie Lane in this laugh out loud romp.
