Studio Two

Sharon has never had a roomate before.
After her divorce, she needs someone to share her Iowa home.
Enter Robin, looking for a new start. But just-moved-from-New York City Robin is nothing like the women in Sharon’s Midwestern-nice book club. Sharp, witty, and unpredictable, Jen Silverman’s fresh-from-Broadway comedy The Roommate hilariously navigates the twists and turns of change as it explores what happens when life doesn’t go quite as planned.
Share with family and friends.
