About the Play
“A fast-paced, laugh-out-loud funny story about love, memory, and the beautiful messiness of a long life together.” - STIR VANCOUVER

Two people, one cottage, fifty years.​

Every year since they were married, Glen and Sandy Golden have been celebrating their wedding anniversary by coming to the same cottage on the lake for an annual weekend of quiet romance. And this year marks a major milestone: 50 years of wedded bliss. Well, mostly bliss... A week before the play begins, Sandy cancelled their big anniversary party and kicked Glen to the curb. And now, he wants to talk.

Set over the course of one evening, as well as the past fifty years, The Goldens remember the good, the bad, and the ugly of spending half a century together--and grapple with what comes next.

The Golden Anniversaries is a comedy-drama about marriage, memory, and long-term love.
