Steppenwolf Extends Tracy Letts' MARY PAGE MARLOWE
Due to popular demand, Steppenwolf Theatre Company extends the critically acclaimed world premiere production of Mary Page Marlowe, written by ensemble member Tracy Letts and directed by artistic director Anna D. Shapiro.
Mary Page Marlowe adds a week of performances in the Downstairs Theatre with the original cast and will now close on Sunday, June 5. Tickets ($20 - $94) are available now through Audience Services (1650 N Halsted St), 312-335-1650 and steppenwolf.org. Note: A limited number of Pit Seats ($30) are available for audiences interested in a truly up-close and intimate theater experience.
Mary Page Marlowe is an accountant from Ohio. She's led an ordinary life, making the difficult decisions we all face as we try to figure out who we really are and what we really want. As Tracy Letts brings us moments-both pivotal and mundane-from Mary's life, a portrait of a surprisingly complicated woman emerges. Intimate and moving, Mary Page Marlowe shows us how circumstance, impulse and time can combine to make us mysteries...even to ourselves.
Featuring an 18-member cast, six different actors portray Mary Page Marlowe over the span of her lifetime. The six actors sharing the title role are: Blair Brown (Mary at ages 59, 63 and 69); Carrie Coon (Mary at ages 27 and 36); Laura T. Fisher (Mary at age 50); Caroline Heffernan (Mary at age 12); Annie Munch (Mary at age 19); and Rebecca Spence (Mary at ages 40 and 44). Completing the cast are ensemble members Ian Barford (Ray) and Alan Wilder (Andy) with Stephen Cefalu, Jr. (Ed Marlowe), Amanda Drinkall (Roberta Marlowe), Jack Edwards (Louis Gilbert), Kirsten Fitzgerald (Shrink), Tess Frazer (Lorna), Keith Gallagher (Ben), Sandra Marquez (Nurse), Ariana Venturi (Connie), Madeline Weinstein (Wendy Gilbert) and Gary Wilmes (Dan).
