“Set against the backdrop of modern dating, ‘BackTalk’ is a witty and warm exploration of what happens when love makes you question everything — about yourself, your past and your future,” Mark Shanahan, the playhouse executive director, said in a publicity release.

The cast, directed by Jeremy Webb, includes Kathy Fitzgerald, Francis Jue, Sharaé Moultrie, David T. Patterson and Ariela S. Nazar-Rosen.
