Indomitable matriarch Rita Lyons is at a major crossroads. Her husband is dying, her son is in a dubious relationship, and her daughter is barely holding it together. Tempers flare, words are exchanged, and secrets are revealed. Worst of all, Rita can''t figure out how to redesign her living room. THE LYONS premiered on Broadway in 2012, receiving multiple Drama Desk, Outer Critics Circle and Drama League Award nominations.
The production team for THE LYONS includes: Jeremiah Barr* (set design), Uriel Gomez (costume design), Samantha Barr* (lighting design), Ray Kasper* (sound design), Linsey Krakowka (props design), Sara Pavlak McGuire* (assistant director) and Danielle Moore* (stage manager). *Denotes AstonRep Company Members.
