Best Medicine Rep presents Robin Rothstein’s hilarious romantic comedy about a couple obsessed with the Yankee shortstop.
Best Medicine Rep, Gaithersburg's professional theater company, is proud to present Derek Jeter Makes the Play by Robin Rothstein to conclude their inaugural season. Directed by Linda Lombardi, the comedy will run through May 19 at the Best Medicine Rep Theater space at Lakeforest Mall. Appearing in the play are Brooke Friday, Rebecca A. Herron, Eric Jones, and Cristian Linares.
Derek Jeter Makes the Play is Robin Rothstein's fun, romantic comedy about an unhealthy obsession with the New York Yankees’ shortstop. Jackie, a young, salt of the earth dental hygienist is at a crossroad. It's July 2011 and as her Yankee hero, Derek Jeter approaches his 3,000th hit milestone, Jackie realizes that her long-term relationship with fellow die-hard Jeter fan, Sal, is on the Disabled List. Her commitment to Sal is tested when a charming, new patient appears in her life, offering the dreamy possibility of marriage, home and adventure. Is Jackie and Sal's mutual passion for Derek Jeter the only thing keeping them together? Can Derek help Jackie find her way back to love? What would Jeter do?
"This charming production showcases great acting, smart design, and effective use of the entire theater space."
--Bev Fleisher, DC Metro Theater Arts
"It is, to use the lexicon of the play’s characters, freakin’ hilarious."
--Tim Treanor, DC Theatre Scene
