Married Alive! is a funny and touching new musical that looks in on two married couples, one newlywed and one oldly wed. From babies to empty nests, job stress to domestic bliss, it’s face paced and acerbic, but always affectionate. As one patron put it, “A hoot with a heart!” Married Alive! is a funny, affectionate outrage, and all it takes is four actors and a piano to go on this journey from Niagara to Viagra.

“Writer Sean Grennan and composer Leah Okimoto have concocted a satirical reflection on the trials of marriage in modern America – everything from repellant in-laws to recalcitrant teenage offspring – while still leaving room for the occasional moment of honest tenderness and bittersweet sentiment.” -Kansas City Star
