Middle age sucks for a foursome of smart New Yorkers in Melissa James Gibson’s much-adored off-Broadway hit comedy This, getting its regional premiere in this production by Main Street Theater. At the story’s center is Jane, a single mom-teacher-poet, who is filled with sadness and regret. Her close friend Tom is married to her other close friend Marrell. There’s also Alan, Jane’s sad gay friend, who’s cursed with a dead-on memory — even for things he’d rather forget.
