Comedies about middle-aged affairs of the heart appeal heavily to the demographic of most live American theaters, so it’s not a surprise that Stage West has ranged far afield to find a new one: Scottish poet and playwright Liz Lochhead debuted Good Things three years ago. Stephanie Dunnam, once one of North Texas’ most prominent leading ladies, has moved back to the area after a busy screen career. After her recent success in Stage West’s The Skin of Our Teeth, Dunnam returns as Lochhead’s heroine, Susan — frustrated by her friends’ attempts to set her up and angrily inappropriate when she finally meets a nice guy on her own.
