Special Event Workshop of 1977 Pulitzer Prize Winning Play featuring Breakthrough Workshop Theatre All Stars

Written by Michael Cristofer / Directed by Ira Bauer-Spector

In this compelling dramatic triptych, three terminal cancer patients dwell in separate cottages on a hospital's grounds. The three are attended and visited by family and close friends: Agnes and her mother Felicity, estranged further by the latter's dementia; Brian and Beverly, whose marital complications are exacerbated by Brian's new lover, Mark; and Joe and Maggie, unready for the strain of Joe's impending death and its effect on their teenage son.
