Reasons to be pretty, is final installment of Neil LaBute's trilogy of theater productions centered on modern obsession with physical appearance. Following The Shape of Things and Fat Pig, the show follows the story of four young friends and lovers whose close-knit social circle erupts into a state of calamity after one of them makes a remark about a pretty face, and his girlfriend's lack thereof. As the characters are faced with confrontational situations of infidelity and broken trust, their journey begs a question that plagues modern day society--how much is beauty worth?
