COME BACK, LITTLE SHEBA

BY WILLIAM INGE

DIRECTED BY JACK CUMMINGS III

 

 

FEBRUARY 23 – APRIL 23, 2017

The Gym at Judson
243 Thompson St at West 4th St

Performed in rotating repertory with Picnic

In an old and cluttered house in the middle west in their middle age, a couple lives one day to the next: Lola, breathless with fear of silence and solitude, and Doc a recovering alcoholic. Into their tired lives comes Marie, their boarder, so flush with the riches of her youth that they can no longer deny how they spent their own. Their fragile acceptance of their own stifling reality is suddenly and brutally tested as Inge mercilessly exposes the pain and regret of the past that can be unmasked by the mere presence of youth and possibility of the future. Inge’s famous play Come Back, Little Sheba, explores the endless and inevitable disappointments of the ever-seductive American promise through sex, joy, doubt, addiction, and rage.
