Sylvia at Newport Playhouse 

This is the final weeknd of Sylvia at the Newport Playhouse. 

Greg and Kate have moved to Manhattan after twenty-two years of child-raising in the suburbs. Greg brings home a dog he found in the park, named "Sylvia."

A street-smart mixture of Lab and Poodle, Sylvia soon takes Greg's attention away from his wife, much to Kate's dismay. A.R. Gurney’s Off Broadway hit is a smart, silly, sophisticated, and occasionally salty comedy about relationships, nature, and growing older.
