If I Needed Someone

Bonjour,

We hope you’ll join us for our next show, “If I Needed Someone” by Neil LaBute. We have an exciting opening weekend planned. There will be a preview on Friday, August 2nd with complimentary champagne, followed by a gala fundraiser for City Garage before the 8:00pm show on opening night Saturday, August 3rd with tickets at $150 each. More on this soon! But don’t miss the chance to get your tickets early for this very special world premiere event!

About the Play

This smart, sexy, funny, timely comedy follows a girl and guy over the course of one night while they try to navigate the minefield of contemporary gender politics. They’ve just met. They like each other. They’re attracted to each other. They’ve ended up back at her place but now the true test begins. How do they avoid saying or doing the wrong thing? How do they say or do the right thing? What does that even mean in today’s world of relationships? Neil LaBute, well known for his biting, provocative plays that show men at their worst and women at their most frustrated, here takes a gentler, sweeter tone and crafts a love story that remains just as edgy, just as full of razor-sharp insights, showing two people who maybe, just maybe, might make it to the other side of that dating war zone and find each other.

$15K Match!

As you probably know, small nonprofit theatres like City Garage can’t survive on box office alone. We make up the difference with grants and from generous contributions from audience members like you. That’s why we were so excited when, recently, one of our patrons (who wished to remain anonymous) made a $15,000 marching pledge. This is, of course, quite wonderful, and comes at a very critical time before new grants come in, late this fall. The thing is, we need to match it by the end of the summer. Thanks to the people below, we now have $3,550 toward the $15,000 we need. Can you join them and help us get there by your gift, large or small?
