Pinter always does interesting and creative things with memory. In Ashes to Ashes, the woman recalls memories that cannot be her memories. Although she is too young to have lived through the Holocaust, she remembers some Holocaust scenes. Cottrell is co-directing the play with Artistic Director Katherine Burkman, a Pinter scholar. They will lead discussions with the cast and audience after each performance.
Valet parking is available.
The Newark couple, who celebrated their 43rd wedding anniversary in August, will play a similarly smitten couple in Gallery Players' production of Cabaret, which opens Saturday. Rich Unger plays the role of Herr Schultz, a neighborhood grocer, opposite his wife's Fraulein Schneider, a lonely landlady. Two years ago, they played the same roles at Newark's Weathervane Playhouse. Mr. Unger also played Schultz for Granville Players, with Mrs. Unger playing Fraulein Kost in that production. The couple has played more than 50 roles in productions in community theaters.
