Gabe and Karen, a happily married middle-aged couple, have been friends with Tom and Beth, another married couple, for many years. While having dinner at Gabe and Karen's home one night, Beth tearfully reveals that she is getting a divorce from Tom, who has been unfaithful. Over the course of the play, we see both couples at different ages and stages of their lives, and we witness the effects of Tom and Beth's breakup on Gabe and Karen, who first feel compelled to choose sides, and then begin to question the strength of their own seemingly tranquil marriage. Winner of the 2000 Pulitzer Prize. (DRAMA) Recommended for 16 and older.
