'Word for Word' Performance at Rossmoor
Tuesday, July 30, 2 PM
Doors open 1:30 PM
(This is a free program made possible by the generosity of Rossmoor resident Shelly Osborne who sadly passed away in June.)
A staged reading of Complainers, a short story by Pulitzer Prize winning author Jeffrey Eugenies (The Virgin Suicides and Middlesex), will be presented at Rossmoor by the Word for Word Performing Arts Company.
The group takes every word the author has written from page to stage without editing or adapting. Stories that receive the most positive audience response often move toward full production.
Complainers is about the relationship between Della, who has moved into an assisted living facility, and Cathy, her younger friend. It will be directed by Charter member Amy Kossow and stars Co-Artistic Director Susan Harloe and Charter member Jeri Lynn Cohen. Rounding out the cast are Tessa Konig-Martiniz, Lisa Hori-Garcia, Joel Mullinex and Paul Finnochiaro.

In the final scene of Henrik Ibsen's classic play, A Doll's House, Nora makes the shocking decision to leave her husband and children and begin a life of her own. A door slams as the curtain falls. In A Doll's House, Part 2, playwright Lucas Hnath continues Nora's story. Fifteen years have passed when there's a knock at that same door. Nora is back. Why? What does she want? How will her return impact the lives of those she walked out on so long ago?
A Doll's House, Part 2 is a fiercely intelligent and theatrically scintillating play that has delighted audiences both on and off Broadway and can be enjoyed without prior familiarity with the original Ibsen work.
Nominated for the Tony Award for Best Play (2017)
Nominated for the Outer Critic Circle Award for Outstanding New Broadway Play (2017)
