History: 2019 Performances
Have you ever been tempted to flee your own life? Becky Foster is caught in middle age, middle management and in a middling marriage—with no prospects for change on the horizon. BECKY'S NEW CAR is a thoroughly original comedy with serious overtones, a devious and delightful romp down the road not taken.

Reviews...
"Perhaps the highest praise that can be given to Steven Dietz’s praiseworthy new comedy is that it’s funny. Not ironic. Not hysterical in a slapsticky kind of way. Just gently and consistently funny — right up to the point that it’s touching, and then even a little bit after that. In Kurt Beattie’s premiere production for Seattle’s ACT Theater, “Becky’s New Car” takes the audience on a smart, comic cruise through the perils of middle-aged longing and regret." Read Full Review
