About this event
One of 148 upcoming events at CNY Arts, and 210 across Syracuse.
Welcome to Bristol Place Senior Living Facility where Abby has lived alone for many years. She is a brittle, collected woman who enjoys her privacy. Through sheer determination, she has managed to intimidate every roommate she has ever been assigned. Along comes Marilyn, a gregarious, buoyant creature who proves to be Abby’s greatest challenge. These two wonderful characters embark on a journey to win sole custody of the room they have been forced to share. Into the mix is added Scotty, an orderly in the retirement home and Abby’s confidant; Colleen and Benjamin, Marilyn’s daughter and son-in-law, who become unwilling co-conspirators in Marilyn’s outrageous schemes; and Benjamin, Abby’s estranged son, who has been battling addiction. Wonderfully dark and filled with twists and turns, “Ripcord” is a comedy of unexpected depth and delight. “This is not your grandmother’s retirement home. Buckle up. These women are about to get spicy.” Get your tickets now for a show you do not want to miss! (Use to Devereux St entrance)
