Later Life
By A.R. Gurney
Directed by Jonathan Silverstein
“Top-notch!” — Theater Pizzazz
February 27 — April 14, 2018
Renowned Playwright A.R. Gurney graces the Keen stage for a third time! In LATER LIFE, a middle-aged man and woman meet at a cocktail party and ponder beginning the relationship that eluded them 30 years ago. While the pair rediscover each other and themselves, a bevy of delightful guests rally behind them. With poignancy and laughs, this classic Gurney play reminds us of the infinite possibilities in life just waiting to be pursued. A romantic tale of missed connections and hope for new beginnings.
This production includes the brief use of herbal cigarettes on stage.
