Quiet Enjoyment: About A Co-Op Closing Gone Hilariously Wrong

Sadia Rahman

Set in New York City, Quiet Enjoyment is about a junior manager Merry Cudlip’s first co-op closing that goes horribly wrong. Richard Curtis, award-winning author, writes a play around a closing on a multi-million dollar Manhattan co-op that ex-husband Peter Chasen is turning over to his ex-wife Juliana as part of a harsh divorce settlement.

When he arrives to turn his $5 million co-op over he brings his girlfriend Karma along to make sure Juliana does not screw him out of anything else. A story that follows a woman trying her best to run her first closing and do everything she can to prevent it from spinning into oblivion. With so many things going wrong her boss is getting more upset, and one more thing: Peter doesn’t have enough money to cover the closing costs.

Directed by Marcus Gualberto and written by Richard Curtis this play is a combination of humor and satire that will have you on the edge of your seat laughing.

"Richard Curtis's unique sense of humor and wit turns the mundane into the hilarious." - Mara Lieberman, Executive Artistic Director, Bated Breath Theatre Company
