AstonRep Stages Theresa Rebeck's THE WATER'S EDGE, Now thru 10/26

By:

AstonRep Theatre Company is pleased to kick-off its 2013-14 season with the Chicago premiere of THE WATER'S EDGE by Theresa Rebeck, directed by Artistic Director Robert Tobin, playing tonight, September 26 - October 26, 2013 at its new, larger home at The Raven Theatre (West Stage), 6157 N. Clark St. in Chicago. Tickets are available at www.astonrep.com or by calling (773) 828-9129. The press opening is Saturday, September 28 at 8 pm.

THE WATER'S EDGE features Ensemble Members Amy Kasper, Ray Kasper and Tim Larson with Mary-Kate Arnold and Sara Pavlak (Jeff Award, Agnes of God).

A modern take on a Greek tragedy, a scorned husband and father returns home after a 17-year absence - with a new girlfriend in tow - to face the ex-wife who still blames him for a devastating loss in their family's past. This tense domestic drama turns shocking as a startling twist is revealed, leading to a stunning climax.

The production team for THE WATER'S EDGE includes: Jeremiah Barr (set design), Derek Bertelsen (costume design), Clayton Horath (music composition), Melissa Albertario (assistant director) and Samantha Barr (stage manager) and Danielle Moore (assistant stage manager).

Tickets: Previews: $10. Regular run: $20. Student/senior/industry/group discounts $10 - $15. Tickets are available at www.astonrep.com or by calling (773) 828-9129.
