Penelope
By Enda Walsh
Directed by ensemble member Amy Morton
Featuring ensemble members Ian Barford, Tracy Letts and Yasen Peyankov with Scott Jaeck and Logan Vaughan
Open Captioned Performance: Saturday, January 21 – 3 pm – Tickets: $20
On a sun-scorched island off the coast of Greece, beautiful Penelope awaits the return of her husband, Odysseus, from the Trojan war. Beneath her window, four Speedo-clad men camp in an empty swimming pool, a cock-eyed internment where both provisions and time are running low. Locked in a do-or-die competition to win Penelope’s love, they preen and posture and connive in a last ditch effort to cheat a grisly fate.
Penelope, the newest play by powerhouse Irish playwright Enda Walsh, is an eloquent, wildly funny riff on life, love and the war at home.
