Fiveplay is a new play from local playwright Erica Smith (writer of 2014’s Come Out and Say It and 2019’s Stonefish) and directed by Sean Butler (2017’s Tiresias’ Tits) taking an affectionate look at polyamory and the modern family. Emerson’s dating Sawyer, who’s married to Monty, who’s dating Ray, who’s also dating Avery, who’s married to Emerson. And their friend Keegan lives with them too.
This is a show about a family — Venn House, six people who chose one another. Sure, sometimes poly people’s problems are about relationships. Sometimes they’re about jobs, or money, or haunted antiques. And sometimes family is even more complicated than it seems.
