A Marriage Minuet
by David WiltseA Marriage Minuet
by David WiltseSmart and sassy...sophisticated and saucy...comedy from start to finish. A Marriage Minuet provides a comedic glimpse into the never-ending dance that we call marriage.
Performed in the style of Restoration Comedy, the play begins with flirtation, leads to temptation and ends in the inevitable infidelity. This is romantic comedy to the modern extreme.
Cleverly structured and theatrically innovative
