The Fade Away Advantage By Meryl Cohn
A writer and her lifelong best friend meet at a Provincetown Airbnb to discuss an emergency plan they made years ago… but which plan is it? The plan to live together for the rest of their lives? Or the plan that would separate them forever? How far would you go to keep a promise to a friend? The Fade-Away Advantage is a comedy about a deadly serious topic — living in the face of mortality while staying fully alive to the end.
Reviews for The Fade Away Advantage By Meryl Cohn
The Fade Away Advantage By Meryl Cohn
Provincetown Theater
The four-person cast is a delight. D’Arcy Dersham as Michaela and Susan Lambert as Jojo are electric as they dance around each other, dissecting their characters’ memories and expectations with spot-on emotional fervor. Janet Geist Moore as Baby is hilarious and has the distinction of being the oddball character that barges into the action precisely when she’s not wanted.

Cohn’s script is simultaneously witty and meditative, sexy and absurd. It defies our expectations more than once. Baby barges in until she’s needed — then she doesn’t come. There very well might be a ghost in the cottage, but she doesn’t mean much to anyone but Baby. Jojo and Michaela are best friends and maybe more.

This play is fantastically thought-provoking, entertaining, and a wonderful lens through which to think about what matters most in life—and death—to each of us.
