Hudson Stage Company to Present A KIND OF ALASKA & A NUMBER in Rep, 5/1-17
Hudson Stage Company announces its spring mainstage production, a first in theatrical history. Two British plays will be paired: A KIND OF ALASKA by Harold Pinter with A NUMBER by Caryl Churchill. With special permission granted by the late Sir Harold Pinter?s widow, Lady Antonia Fraser, as a rare exception because he greatly admired Ms. Churchill?s work, this will be an opportunity for audiences to witness two of England?s greatest playwrights in tandem. This not-to-be-missed event will run for three weekends only May 2nd-17th.
In A KIND OF ALASKA, inspired by an Oliver Sacks? story, a middle-aged woman wakes up after nearly thirty years have passed in a coma induced by sleeping sickness.
A NUMBER was the winner of the Evening Standard Award for Best Play. Human cloning is the subject of this beguiling psychological thriller that blends scientific speculation with a stunning portrait of the relationship between fathers and sons.
Directed by Dan Foster, and produced by Olivia Sklar. Preview Friday, May 2nd, opens Saturday, May 3rd and runs weekends only through Saturday, May 17th. Evenings at 8pm, Matinees Sunday May 4, and 11th at 3pm (Q&A following the May 11th performance) and matinee Saturday, May 17th at 3pm.
