“The Cottage” at North Coast Repertory Theatre
Love, lies, and laughter collide behind closed doors. North Coast Repertory Theatre presents “The Cottage,” Sandy Rustin’s wickedly funny feminist farce that made its Broadway debut at the Helen Hayes Theater in 2023. Set in the English countryside in 1923, this side-splitting romp finds passion colliding with propriety as one woman’s decision to expose her own affair sends secrets, scandal, and screwball chaos spilling out of every room. As love, marriage, loyalty, and desire are called into question, “The Cottage” proves that betrayal has never been this much fun.
“The Cottage” runs through Sunday, November 22, 2026, and are held on Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Sundays at 7 p.m., Saturdays at 8 p.m., with Saturday and Sunday matinees at 2 p.m.
Shana Wride directs Josh Cahn (Richard), Jacob Caltrider (Clarke), Abby Leigh Huffstetler (Dierdre), Katie Karel (Sylvia), Taubert Nadalini (Beau), and Lauren Weinberg (Marjorie). Christopher M. Williams is stage manager, and Jay Brace is production assistant. The design team includes Sean Fanning (set design), Matt Novotny (light design), Shirley Pierson (costume design), Melanie Chen Cole (sound design), Zachary Elliott (props design), and Peter Herman (hair and wig design). Emmelyn Thayer is dialect coach. Crew includes Keelyn McDermott.
North Coast Rep is located at 987 Lomas Santa Fe Drive, Solana Beach, CA 92075. For complete performance schedule and ticket information, call 858-481-1055, or visit www.northcoastrep.org.
