The play is a farcical comedy that follows the lives of two St. Thomas men, John Caesar and Billy Boy, as they handle their romantic relationships during the slow portion of the island’s summer tourist season.
In an attempt to gain her love, John Caesar declares to the attractive Brenda that he is only "half married" to his church-going wife of 37 years, Thelma Caesar.
Marc Fellnererez, the director of “Half Married,” says, “Dr. Donoghue’s hilarious comedy about boys being boys (no matter how old) will have you either riveted to your seat or falling about laughing as you recognize both the drama and ridiculous humor about daily life in St. Thomas.”
The cast includes George Silcott, Sandra Goomansingh, Christina Harper and Walid John. The production is sponsored in part by the V.I. Council on the Arts.
