BTG Satellites presents “Family Furniture”
November 12 @ 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm
$15
BTG Satellites, the off-site small production partnership with the Bellingham Theatre Guild and New Prospect Theatre, presents Family Furniture, A. R. Gurney’s clear-eyed coming-of-age story of that certain summer in the 1950s when everything shifts for one particular family. One of the gems in Gurney’s body-of-work exploring WASP culture in America, Family Furniture will be performed at the New Prospect Theatre from November 12-22, 2026, with 7:30pm evening performances and 2pm matinees on Sundays, with tickets at $15, and available at New Prospect Theatre via ThunderTix.
Directed by Gregory Berry of Outsiders Inn, Family Furniture takes us to the gin and tonics, vichyssoise, and tennis doubles of Buffalo’s summer scene, where siblings Nick and Peggy must confront their mother’s possible infidelity, their father’s apparent indifference, and their own increasingly complicated love lives. Equal parts nostalgic, funny and heart-breaking, Family Furniture unfolds with Gurney’s characteristically clear-eyed observations of the human capacity for surviving the amazing, unlikely and sometimes painful consequences of life with a stoic smile on one’s face. Containing adult language and adult situations, Family Furniture will be performed by talented local actors.
BTG SATELLITES is a partnership between the Bellingham Theatre Guild and the New Prospect Theatre, to produce theater outside the confines of the BTG. All performances are at the New Prospect Theatre, 207 Prospect Street, Bellingham WA, and advance ticket purchases are always encouraged.
