A Body of Water
by Lee Blessing

September 26 & October 3

 

Directed by Robert Miller

Featuring Bruce Pileggi, Christine Crawfis and Elizabeth Barrows.

What would you do if you woke up one morning, and didn't recognize where you were? Not only that, you didn't know WHO you were?

Moss and Avis, an attractive, middle-aged couple, wake up one morning in an isolated summer house high above a picturesque body of water. The weather’s fine; the view’s magnificent. There’s only one problem—neither of them can remember who they are. When a young woman named Wren arrives, information starts to flood in. But will it help? Her explanations seem only to make Moss and Avis’ world—as well as ours—more terrifying.

Lee Blessing’s suspenseful and mysterious exploration of the deep relationship between memory and identity. Is this a couple or are they strangers? Is this their daughter? Is she even real? You will be talking about this play for days!
