Laughter and literature collide in this smart hit comedy about books and the people who love them

Ana is a Type A personality who lives in a letter-perfect world with an adoring husband, the perfect job and her greatest passion: Book Club

But when her cherished group becomes the focus of a documentary film, their intimate discussions about life and literature take a turn for the hilarious in front of the inescapable camera lens

Add a provocative new member along with some surprising new book titles, and soon these six friends are bound for pandemonium

Sprinkled with fun theatrical references to documentaries and novels galore from Moby Dick and Age of Innocence to Twilight and The Da Vinci Code, this buoyant comedy on contemporary culture will have everyone laughing

And reflecting

A delightful new play about life and love and literature

And the side-splitting results when friends start reading between the lines

"A delightful, fresh comedy distinctive, sharp and exceptionally well written" ~ Talkin' Broadway

" "[An] uproarious social comedy ... The Book Club Play is a people-pleasing comedy which never gets too heavy or challenging. However, it is done so well that, like one of the books under discussion, it may be the right thing at the right time to be a greatly rewarding experience"~ chicagocritic.com
