In 2 Across, Janet, a high-achieving, Catholic psychologist, and Josh, a free-spirited Jewish, unemployed businessman, both 40-50, board a San Francisco BART train at 4:30 a.m. Each is doing the New York Times crossword puzzle; she’s a pro, he always quits. Over the course of their journey, we see how they rub each other the wrong – and right – ways, and how each has changed by the end of the ride.
Playwright Mayer wrote for some of our most celebrated TV shows, all of which brilliantly combined heart and humor: M*A*S*H, All in the Family and The Mary Tyler Moore Show, to mention a few.

Lanford Wilson’s Pulitzer Prize-winning romantic drama is set in 1944, in the deserted boathouse on the Talleys’ farm in Lebanon, Missouri. This moving and lyrical play deals with the courtship of the young Sally Talley and her suitor, Matt Friedman. Matt, an accountant from St. Louis, has arrived to plead his love to Sally, the cautious, still-unmarried daughter of the Talley family. Through his charm and persistence, Matt gradually overcomes her resistance, revealing his innermost secrets and gradually awakening Sally to the possibilities of a life together.
Talley’s Folly is presented by arrangement with Dramatists Play Service, a division of Broadway Licensing.
