'Jake's Women' at Main Street Theatre

The Sayreville Main Street Co. presents Neil Simon's dramady, "Jake's Women."

The show performs at 8 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays and 2 p.m. on Sundays, from April 17 to 25. Tickets are $20 for adults, $16 for seniors/students, and $12 for children.

Jake, a novelist who is more successful with fiction than with life, faces a marital crisis when he begins daydreaming about the women in his life. The wildly comic and sometimes moving flashbacks played in his mind are interrupted by visitations from actual females. Jake's women include a revered first wife who was killed years earlier in an accident, his daughter who is recalled as a child but is now a young woman, his boisterous and bossy sister, an opinionated analyst, his current wife, who is leaving him for another man, and a prospective third wife.

The show is directed by Jessica Mennella and produced by Pat Schladebeck and Peter Bobchin.
