Matthew Leavitt
The Boomerang Effect is a comedy consisting of five interrelated short plays that peeks into the sex lives of five different couples in various bedroom scenarios. It explores the many universals that occur in every relationship, while examining the trickier issues that can test a couple’s durability such as secrecy, infidelity, power struggles, miscommunication, and sexual incompatibility. While wrestling with their individual predicaments, each couple also unknowingly ends up exacerbating the tensions of the other relationships, until their seemingly innocuous interferences come back to smack them in the face. As one of our characters puts it, "Every decision we make becomes just another link in this endless chain of well-intentioned disasters we call life."
