"We've never been to Europe?" "Singly, not together." "I think we have. You've forgotten." "I've got a perfectly good memory." "You can't even remember my name."
When age cripples the mind, names are forgotten, memories blur and life becomes simple. A senile, old couple sitting on a bench in the park. They try to remember the past, the times they had fun together, and the times spent having fun with their past husbands and wives. All would be fine, if only the pair could agree on each other's depiction of the past. CAST: |
"I want to be married. I like you. I'd like to be married to you... but I see people like her over there - that incredibly fat woman pushing those two - yes, two - incredibly fat children in that bright blue perambulator with that dog on the leash, and I say what's the use of being married. It obviously didn't make her happy. . . what's the good of marriage?" Thrust together by Fate And a Blue Rifle
CAST:
"Brilliant, funny, often bizarre and continually entertaining, this short play was first presented at off-off-Broadway's Caffe Cino. Absurdist in style, it achieves a lively theatricality with the simplest of means. . . . '[F]ine comedy in the tradition of theatre of the absurd.'"
