This Space Between Us

By Peter Gil-Sheridan
Directed by Jonathan Silverstein

Thought-provoking!” — DC Metro Arts
“Hilarious!” — Theatermania

February 22 — April 2, 2022

Keen Company is proud to present the world premiere of This Space Between Us by Peter Gil-Sheridan. Nobody understands why Jamie wants to leave his cushy law office to work for a non-profit. His boyfriend is confused, his best friend is betrayed, and his conservative Cuban-American family are a total wreck. As Jamie announces his plans to serve those less fortunate, one shocking afternoon at the racetrack sparks unexpected and irreversible consequences for them all. This intergenerational comedy by The Rafa Play playwright Peter Gil-Sheridan follows a raucous attempt to reach for something more without leaving the people you love behind.

This production will run 95 minutes with no intermission. Proof of vaccination will be required to enter the venue. Masks must be worn at all times.

“An excellent ensemble, their motley foibles emerge as endearingly, frustratingly human, and often quite funny as well.”

New York Stage Review

This Space between Us perfectly matches Keen’s commitment to issues of identification and connection.”

Theater Pizzazz

“Gil-Sheridan gets us laughing and has a talent for taut, realistic dialogue and satirical commentary.”
