Inspired by the writings of Italo Calvino (Invisible Cities and If on a Winter's Night a Traveler), The Late Wedding is a fractured portrait of a fractured marriage, as told through a series of interconnected fables, including an anthropological tour of fantastical tribes and their marital customs. Christopher Chen's winking second-person narrative, delivered by a six-person shape-shifting cast, deftly guides you on a wild and delightful examination of love and longing. At once an anthropological tour through marriage customs, a spy thriller, and a sci-fi love story, the mind-bending The Late Wedding is an inventive and surprising theatrical experience.

The play is a provocative one-act composed with a unique theatrical structure. a swirling nebula of magical notions put down in a contemporary world." - DC Metro Theatre Arts"A comic dramatic inquiry into human relationships - between lovers or spouses; between playwright and audience - [The Late Wedding] is another of Chen's slyly metatheatrical blissfully funny whiplash-smart creations. What begins as a look at anthropological research into the marital arrangements and lore of a few odd tribes segues without warning into a political drama cum action thriller." - SF Gate"Bold and brainy. As The Late Wedding dips in and out of such genres as the spy caper and science fiction. it blurs the boundaries between its two strands of Calvino homage so that the genre-sampling meta-theater begins to reflect on the bittersweet realities of marriage." - The Washington Post"[The Late Wedding] is about the vagaries of love and marriage both homo- and heterosexual and the way that we both cherish and distort the past and about the creative process itself. you gotta see this funny brilliant play." - San Francisco Examiner.
