Writers, actors-and real-life-married-couple Annabelle Gurwitch and Jeff Kahn star in “You Say Tomato, I Say Shut Up!,”

The national tour of the hilarious new show “You Say Tomato, I Say Shut Up!”, a comedy that People magazine called “Laugh Out Loud!,” continues its national tour with a premiere in San Diego at downtown’s Lyceum Theatre, 79 Horton Plaza, July 24 through August 18, 2013.

After 17 years of marriage, writers, actors and real-life-married-couple Annabelle Gurwitch (“Dinner and a Movie,” “Fired!”) and Jeff Kahn (“The Ben Stiller Show,” “The 40-Year-Old Virgin”) have adapted their hilarious, often moving, memoir, “You Say Tomato, I Say Shut Up!” for the stage, directed by Van Kaplan.

This 75-minute tour de force, “You Say Tomato, I Say Shut Up!,” takes a humorous look at a relationship that seems challenged from the start, by powerful, opposing personalities. But after trials and tribulations, they learn to navigate the conflicts that come with romance, money, and children by embracing each other’s differences, taking on parenting as a competitive sport, and dropping out of couple’s therapy. Their delightfully crazy lifestyle has managed to keep their relationship intact, up-ending every idea you ever had about living “happily ever after.”
