Fate plays its hand in this fresh, intimate staging of Audrey Cefaly's romantic comedy, The Last Wide Open, featuring original songs by Matthew M. Nielson and directed for The Umbrella Stage Company by Nancy Curran Willis.
Lina (Rebecca Shor), a young waitress, and Roberto (Ethan Butler), an Italian immigrant, have been working together for years but rarely talk. If they do, its from a distance or gets lost in translation. But when a late-night thunderstorm finds them alone in the restaurant at closing time, they find their lives intersecting in surprising and mystical ways. Over wine and conversation, they test the waters of happiness and intimacy. Also starring Kayla Shimizu as Stagehand.
A love song in three movements, The Last Wide Open imagines how the universe conspires to bring us together.
This production is staged with limited capacity and enhanced COVID health safety protocols in The Umbrella Arts Center's recently constructed new Main Stage Theater144.
It kicks off a varied season line-up that also includes: the music-rich and imaginative sea-faring epic The Old Man and The Old Moon; an updated, relevant new presentation of the satirical The Colored Museum; and the joyous musical comedy Head Over Heels, from the visionaries behind Hedwig and the Angry Inch and Avenue Q, fueled by music from the Go-Gos. Balancing out the season is an expanded family friendly concert, Holidays Under The Umbrella, and an original play commission created by Hortense Gerardo.
Single Tickets from $15-$44.
Discounted season subscriptions available online.
Special pricing available from the Box Office for Groups, military, teachers, and frontline workers, and EBT, WIC, and ConnectorCare cardholders.
