A comedy set in a run-down apartment on Staten Island, with three gay roommates, in crisis, during one frantic Christmas weekend. One of them, Terry, an out-of-work actor who can’t get a job or a date, spends his days drinking and refereeing a messy love triangle. Extremely funny, and deeply moving, The Crumple Zone is about staying together, breaking apart, and the things we lose along the way.

Winner: 1998 New Voices Play Award. “The kind of domestic comedy that might have been written by Neil Simon if he were gay and 40 years younger!” – Bruce Weber, N.Y. Times. Produced Off-Broadway at Rattlestick Theatre Company, NYC. West Coast Premiere: New Conservatory Theatre Center.
