Winner - 2004 Kaufman & Hart Prize for New American Comedy
February 14–March 19, 2006
By Catherine Butterfield
It’s post 9/11 America and suburban housewife Gretchen is cocooned in her own paranoia and a loveless marriage. Enter her son’s irresistibly handsome math tutor—a man she begins to suspect of dangerous political activities—and the stage is set for a helter-skelter dramatic comedy. Gretchen is determined to do the right thing and get to the bottom of things but she’s embarked on a perilous mission. Hold on to your seats! Laguna Playhouse audiences loved Butterfield’s thriller Joined at the Head. The West Coast premiere of The Sleeper promises equal excitement.
