“You take the breath in... you let it out. The first one you take in you’re upside down and they slap you into it. The last one... well, the last one you let it all out... and that’s it.”
One very old woman, autocratic, proud, as together as the ravages of time will allow.
The second. Younger. Her carer. Dispassionate but not unsympathetic.
The third. Considerably younger. Bright, confidant, but a little out of her depth.
Edward Albee coming to terms with the relationship he had with his adoptive mother. A woman neither he, nor many of the people who met her, actually liked. But a play written without prejudice, objective without the distortive folly of ‘interpretation’.
A 1994 Pulitzer prize-winning masterpiece which confirms his reputation as one of America’s leading playwrights.
This amateur production is presented by arrangement with Josef Weinberger Ltd.
