Six Degrees of Separation is a witty, biting, yet ultimately sincere commentary on what drives people: the desire for money, fame, social standing, comfort and a meaningful human connection.


I will not be part of this conspiracy! - Tess
It's not a conspiracy it's a family. - Flan

Six Degrees of Separation explores the existential premise that everyone in the world is connected to everyone else in the world by a chain of no more than six acquaintances, thus, "six degrees of separation".

The plot of the play was inspired by the real-life story of David Hampton, a con man who managed to convince a number of people in the 1980s that he was the son of actor Sidney Poitier. After the play became a dramatic and financial success, Hampton was tried and acquitted for harassment of Guare; he felt he was due a share of the profits that he ultimately never received.

Directed by Diane Malone, the cast features Anna Gangai as Ouisa, John O’Neill as Flan and Justin Keown as Paul. Other cast members include Bethany Prestigiacomo, Michael Duggan, Joe DeMott, Timothy Retzloff, Sarah Nixon, Desiree Chappelle, Dru Barcus, Mark McCarver, Albert Penuelaz, Eric Soto and Dan Yount.
