Trinity Rep Performs House and Garden


From the author of Absurd Person Singular comes the theatrical event of the season - House & Garden - a pair of interlocking comedies that take place simultaneously. Two plays, two audiences...one cast! Directed by resident company member Brian McEleney, the shows open in previews on May 16 and then run simultaneously through June 30 in both the Chace and Dowling Theaters.  House & Garden are like two opposite sides of a theatrical puzzle - the picture gets clearer, funnier and more profound, when you return to see the second side of the story.
Teddy and Trish are hosting a big garden party for the town. Friends, family, a London writer, and a French movie star… what could go wrong? Fans of Ayckbourn will know the answer: anything and everything. While the actors race from House (in the upstairs theater) to Garden (yes, all the way back down the stairs to the first floor theater), the lucky audience stays put, seeing each production one at a time, in either order. Regular and discounted tickets are on sale now at the Trinity Rep box office, 201 Washington St.; by phone at (401) 351-4242; and online at www.trinityrep.com.
