Theatre Y Presents Andras Visky's Juliet 9/10-10/3

Theatre Y's Melissa Hawkins stars in Visky's biographically-based tour de force, directed by Karin Coonrod, who staged the critically acclaimed production of Visky's "I Killed My Mother" earlier this year. This riveting 90-minute solo work subtitled "A Dialogue about Love," is the story of how a woman's enduring love is tested while she is imprisoned with her children with no chance of survival. Plays International Magazine says "Without a gram of sentimentality, ‘Juliet' reminds us that crocuses still bloom- even in the snow."
