The M Spot

TOP PICK

New Jersey Repertory Company presents the world premiere of “The M Spot” by Michael Tucker, star of TV’s “L.A. Law.”

Jerry and Maddie have been married — forever — and are looking for something to recapture the former vitality of their marriage. They’ve been through the mill when it comes to therapists and well-meaning advice, so when the opportunity arises for them to go on a retreat to a new-age spa — complete with massages — Jerry is all for it. Maddie, on the other hand, is a bit more reserved, and is naturally skeptical about the process and her husband’s motives. But when Maddie finally let’s go of her inhibitions with the aid of a lovely young masseuse, Jerry is left scratching his head wondering what he missed.

The cast includes Michael Tucker, Jill Eikenberry and Pheonix Vaughn. It is directed by Evan Bergman.
