Portland Stage
The Gin Game by D.L. Coburn
November 12 Depart 1pm for 2pm show
Humor and psychological warfare crackle over a card game between two quick-witted residents of a retirement home in this Pulitzer Prize-winning drama. Though neither Fonsia nor Weller is quite ready to admit their weaknesses - or their secrets - their game of gin becomes a metaphor for life as each one wages an emotional battle against aging.
The Mystery of Irma Vep by Charles Ludlam
Feb 18 Depart 1pm for 2pm show A hilariously exaggerated spoof of Gothic horror and Victorian melodrama in which an unsuspecting woman marries a mysterious Lord, only to discover that the presence of his first wife still haunts the manor house.
Complete with vengeful vampires and damsels in distress, Irma Vep is filled with witty literary allusions, subversive political jabs and one of the funniest ”penny dreadful” plots ever to take the stage!
Master Harold and the Boys by Athol Fugard
March 18 Depart 1pm for 2pm show A sometimes comic, frequently searing, and ultimately hopeful coming of age story set during a rain-soaked afternoon in South Africa. Fugard's masterpiece is a powerful examination of the impact of Apartheid on the close friendship between young Hally, a teenager from a fractured family trying to find his place, and two black servants.
Mary's Wedding by Stephen Massicotte
April 22 Depart 1pm for 2pm show A passionate and heart-breaking love story about a young farmer and his bride-to-be who are separated when he enlists in World War I. Mary and Charlie tell an unforgettable story from the quiet after a Prairie thunderstorm to the terrors of the trenches in this award-winning drama about two lovers who must surrender their fate to the uncertainties of tumultuous times.
Bach at Leipzig by Itamar Moses
May 20 Depart 1pm for 2pm show
When the coveted position of organ master at Leipzig Cathedral is advertised, the greatest musicians of 18th century Germany scurry to audition. Waiting for their turns to play, seven discordant characters collide in a hilarious fugue of
wit and wordplay, as they deliciously scheme, bribe, and double-cross to win the post that will make one musician a legend.
