Citadel's production will be the first of that comedy since its Broadway engagement in 2023, where it was directed by Jason Alexander and starred Eric McCormack. THE COTTAGE was written by Sandy Rustin, who grew up in Glenview and graduated from Northwestern University. This is a brand-new, side splitting romp. This outrageous tale of sex, betrayal, and desire is one woman's attempt to expose her latest affair to both her husband-and to her lover's wife. Surprising and hilarious web of secrets unravels in this ridiculously funny romantic comedy.
