Synopsis: | Getting Their Act Together Again is a heady and hilarious trip through Gretchen Cryer and Nancy Ford's professional and personal lives. With a relationship that spans four decades, musical theater team Cryer and Ford have been together longer than most marriages. From their undergrad years at DuPauw University, through children and marriages, and professional successes on and off Broadway, Cryer and Ford mine the hits (and a few of the side-splitting misses!) that have made them musical theater's most successful and enduring female writing team. | |||||
