King Lear

By William Shakespeare

directed by Alex Alexander Oleksij

Shakespeare’s classic tells the tale of King Lear, who in preparation for his old age, divides his power and land between his daughters Goneril and Regan, who pay homage to gain favor, feigning love.

The King’s third daughter, Cordelia, is offered a third of his kingdom also, but refuses to be insincere in her praise and affection. She instead offers the respect of a daughter and is disowned by Lear who seeks flattery.

Regan and Goneril subsequently break promises to host Lear and his entourage, so he opts to become homeless and destitute, goes insane, and the French King married to Cordelia invades Britain to restore order and Lear’s rule. In a subplot, Edmund, the illegitimate son of Gloucester, betrays his brother and father.

“For Peter Pan On Her 70th Birthday”

By Sarah Ruhl

directed by Gina Sarno

When Ann thinks of her father, she immediately remembers playing Peter Pan in her hometown theater in Iowa, particularly when he used to bring her flowers after her performance. Her memory is jogged by the fact that she and her four siblings are in their father’s hospital room during his final moments. His death sparks a conversational wake that includes everything from arguments over politics to when each sibling realized that they grew up. A loving look at a family’s view of death, life and the allure of never growing up.
