About The Roommate

See Mia Farrow and Patti LuPone prove that being bad can be so much fun.

Sharon (Farrow) has never had a roommate before. But after her divorce, she needs a housemate to pay the bills. That's when Robyn (LuPone) arrives. The Roommate by Jen Silverman is about an unexpected, life-changing friendship that's both funny and deeply moving, between two very different middle-aged women as they navigate the complexities of identity, morality, and the dream of reinvention.

"I liked the dynamic between the 2 characters. Was charmed by their story. Was a treat to watch 2 such solid and accomplished actresses interact on stage. Mia Farrow's character had a more interesting arc than Patti LuPone's who didn't have much of one. Beginning felt a bit slow. But all in all the play, if not memorable, was charming and entertaining."

"I loved how both characters evolved in the play. Patti LuPone has a star quality in her acting that is always fascinating to watch because of the specificity of her diction and movement. Mia Farrow surprisingly won me over with the charm and transformation of her character. She was the heart of the Roommate, which as a play won’t win any prizes despite performers who absolutely found wonderful comedic moments and made the most of a lame script. It was very predictable and simple."
