​
Newly divorced 38-year-old Elizabeth returns to New York City for a fresh start, where one small choice becomes the proverbial fork in the road as the city planner’s life splits into two parallel paths. Switching back and forth between the worlds of ‘Liz’ and ‘Beth’, If/Then follows two possible versions of Elizabeth’s life as she faces the consequences of choice and chance.
​
If/Then explores themes love and loss in its manifold forms, told through the intersecting lives of Elizabeth and her friends, old and new. A tight cast of 16 bring to life the bustling backdrop of New York, a city of infinite possibilities.
