Christopher Durang's comedy The Marriage of Bette and Boo opened Off-Broadway July 13.

Walter Bobbie directs the new revival of the "dark comedy that takes a look at the complex marriage of Bette and Boo," according to Roundabout Theatre Company. "Three decades of marriage, divorce, alcoholism, nervous breakdowns and death — all blended in a unique mix of irony, humor and farce — are played out in 33 quick scenes."

Christopher Evan Welch and Kate Jennings Grant play the title roles with a cast that also features John Glover, Victoria Clark, Terry Beaver, Heather Burns, Julie Hagerty, Adam Lefevre, Zoe Lister-Jones and Charles Socarides.

The cast and crew celebrated the show's run with a July 10 party at New York City's Hard Rock Cafe (three days before the opening). Here are some photos from the event:
