Getting Sara Married

By Sam Bobrick

3.0 out of 5 stars (based on 1 review)

Sara Hastings is an unmarried lawyer in her mid-thirties, much too busy to get involved in romance. Her Aunt Martha has decided to take matters into her own hands and find her a husband.

Unfortunately, Aunt Martha’s method of doing it amounts to having the prospective groom bopped over the head and brought to Sara’s apartment. Aunt Martha’s choice is Brandon Cates, a young man who handles Aunt Martha’s finances. Although Brandon is engaged to be married, this does not deter Aunt Martha.

After being bopped on the head a few times, having a temporary loss of memory and experiencing several instances of mouth-to-mouth resuscitation and a confrontation with the very angry fiancé, Brandon slowly comes to realize that Sara is really the girl for him.

Great performances from the supporting actors

Watched Getting Sara Married last night. The play was okey, but at times felt a bit stretched out. The main characters could have been a bit more likable. Great performances on the other hand from the supporting actors. I thought the aunt, Noogie Malloy and the angry fiance were hilarious!
