Based on the beloved film starring Ruth Gordon, "Harold and Maude" centers around a suicidal 19-year-old boy who finally learns how to truly live when he meets that delightfully wacky octogenarian, Maude. Harold is the proverbial poor little rich kid. His alienation has caused him to attempt suicide several times, though these incidents are more cries for attention than actual attempts. His peculiar attachment to Maude, whom he meets at a funeral (a mutual passion) is what saves him and what captivates us. This stage version, a hit in France and an Alabama premiere, will certainly delight both aficionados of the film and new comers to this amazing story.
