The Goddamn Couple Down the Hall (Oh...and Merry Christmas!)

Written by Mark Wilding. Directed by Charlie Mount. Presented by Theatre West. It’s Christmas in Pasadena. And the Woodruff clan is gathering at the condo of elder daughter, Dana. Her fiancé, Chad, is preparing a gourmet feast for the holiday. The guests include Dana’s parents, Jerry and Maureen, as well as her younger sister, Sydney, and her boyfriend, Lance.
What promises to be a beautiful day spent with loved ones gets turned on its head by the goddamn couple down the hall, Lucinda and Kenny, who clearly hate each other, and whose screaming matches – funny and foul-mouthed -- can be heard loud and clear by the Woodruffs.

When things down the hall suddenly go quiet, the Woodruffs wonder if that means Kenny and Lucinda have kissed and made up? Or could there be foul play? The family’s divided on whether they should investigate. Is it better to let sleeping dogs lie or should they dig in and try to unravel what actually happened between their feuding neighbors?
