Bloomington Playwrights Project adds two performances

The Bloomington Playwrights Project announced Monday that it is extending its play, “Kalamazoo.”

The BPP has added two performances of the comedy, scheduled for Oct. 17 and 18.

Tickets are available at the Buskirk-Chumley Theater box office or may be purchased online at ? newplays.org .

After the group sold out each of its weekend performances, it decided to add two more shows.

This weekend’s performances are currently sold out, but tickets are now on sale for the two extra performances.

“Kalamazoo” has become the BPP’s best-selling show in their 35 years in the Bloomington community.

It features the story of Irving and Peg, two 70-somethings who are looking to get back on the dating horse.

Their children convince each of them to sign up for an online dating site, where they connect and decide to go on a date.

They meet at a Mexican restaurant and have too many margaritas.

The next morning they wake up in a motel with tattoos they don’t remember and no idea what happened the night before.

The rest of the play follows their love story and shows audiences the value of relationships and that it’s never too late to find love, artistic director Chad Rabinovitz said.
