Wonder of the World

by David Lindsay-Abaire
A daffy, comedic, and surreal journey of self-discovery!

Cass is not prepared to discover a dirty little secret in her husband's sweater drawer. It is so shocking that she has no choice but to flee to the honeymoon capital of the world in a frantic search for the life she thinks she missed out on. It's a wild ride in a barrel of laughs over Niagara Falls as Cass crosses paths with a blithely suicidal alcoholic, a lonely tour boat captain, a pair of bickering private detectives, and a strange caper involving a gargantuan jar of peanut butter, all of which pushes her perilously close to the edge.

Written by Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning playwright David Lindsay-Abaire! He won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 2007 for "Rabbit Hole" and both Best Book and Best Original Score of a Musical at the 2023 Tony Awards for the musical adaptation of his play "Kimberly Akimbo."

Directed by James Sanguinetti
