Harbor
Tony Award-nominee Chad Beguelin tells the story of two newlyweds, Kevin and Ted who live in an affluent subset of the Hamptons. When Kevin's fifteen-year-old niece Lottie and her ne'er-do-well mother Donna drop in unannounced on the couple's beautiful Sag Harbor home, all hell breaks loose. The bonds between kith and kin are tested in this alternately biting and touching comedy about the constantly shifting nature of the meaning of family.

3.5, rounded down.
Beguelin is best known as the libretto writer for three successful Broadway musicals (including the recent hit, 'The Prom'), but this is his only straight ... err... gay play without music! It's a bit sit-com-y; people don't actually talk and act in this fashion, but there are some clever and funny lines. For a comedy though, none of the four characters actually wind up with anything resembling what they want or a 'happy ending', so that's rather dispiriting.

What's with all the gay plays in the latter half of this decade that are peopled with irresponsible, awful women? This feels gross to me, and I am a bit tired of reading them. It feels like projection.
