Debbie and Freddie were high school sweethearts. Two years after graduation, they are parents of a three year-old daughter. Tonight, in a Providence hospital, they need to get their story straight. Directed by Tony Estrella SF-GT closes the season celebrating the centenary of this elegant, lyrical and poignant comedy. Chekhov, unsurpassed in his ability to capture the nuances of human behavior, creates a potpourri of clandestine desire, wistful yearning and unrequited love - a masterpiece for the ages.
Scenes stretch to the breaking point with sexual tension.
Bill Gale, The Providence Journal. Directed by Judith Swift. Add the wicked manipulation of time and history and no-one is safe from the perambulations of Carr's hysterical, revisionist memory. We also welcome Sandra Cullen as Technical Director and Properties Designer. Lyrics by Barbara Damashek.
