A Leaving the Nest Test, New Work Explores the Comic Anxiety of Parenting

Scott Devine, ETC’s Artistic Director, announces that the actors had only one day to rehearse. And that’s why at the beginning, the play feels like a stage reading. But when you have such a talented pool of talented and experienced actors, magic happens and the day is saved.

PARENTS IN CHAINS will open on Wednesday, March 12 and perform through Sunday, March 30 at the New Vic Theatre.

Ensemble Theatre Company is staging the new comedy at Santa Barbara's New Vic Theatre.
