MARCH
TRUE WEST COMES TO THE APEX LOUNGE AT SCRIBNERS
MARCH 28th & 29th
In partnership with Scribners' Mountain Lodge, MATH will stage Sam Shepard's iconic play, True West. This will be the inaugural production on a new, innovative circular stage: the Apex Lounge at the Rounds.
Jake Shipley, Associate Creative Director of MATH will direct the upcoming production of the critically acclaimed play. The production stars local actors Brian Flynn as ‘Austin’ and Leo Gilmore as ‘Lee’, joined by the fabulous Elisabeth Henry as their mother. This gripping drama will take the stage on March 28th and 29th at 6:00pm, and will feature a pre-show cocktail party and intermission desserts (plus a cash bar) provided by Scribner’s Fellow Cafe.
True West tells the story of two estranged brothers, who reunite at their mother's home just outside the California desert. The unlikely duo write a screenplay for a producer, and as they navigate their complicated past, conflicting personalities, and combined interests, the lines between reality and fiction begin to blur.
Known for quality dialogue and symbolism, Sam Shephard’s plays are always exciting and richly layered, exploring the limits of brotherly love and the expectations of masculinity. Dark humor and pathos abound as the siblings morph and twist into unexpected versions of themselves.
Tickets for the evening are $65, which includes a welcome cocktail (n/an available), appetizers, intermissions desserts and coffee. Cash bar also available. Ticket link coming soon! Please subscribe to our newsletter for the latest information: maudeadamsinfo@gmail.com
