Can you really make the life you want for yourself? Two families struggle and grapple with what they want and what they'll have to do to get it in this piercing family drama. Sunday Evening won the most respected theater award in Bulgaria in 2009, an Askeer, for "Best New Bulgarian Play," with its story hitting close to home, challenging the American Dream and the concept of "happily ever after."
Rose and Nick are an immigrant couple trapped between the demons of their past and betrayal of the present. Their neighbor and best friend Stella, an actress with a vibrant past but without any recent successes, witnesses their turmoil. The main reminder of Stella's glorious early days is their victim, her daughter Jenny, who must resort to manipulation in order to receive love, understanding and affection that are long overdue.
The Sunday Evening cast features Maria Margaglione, "Stella;" Rachel Sepiashvili,"Rose;" Logan Hulick, "Nick;" Melanie McNulty, "Jenny;" Whitney Pipes, ensemble; Grant Johnson, ensemble and Jordan Kulow, ensemble.
The design team includes Zlatomir Moldovanski, director; Reginald Robinson, associate director; Chloe Baldwin, intimacy and fight choreographer; Chas Mathieu scenic designer; Scott Wagner lighting designer; Julia Stoyanova, costume designer and Bernard Balbot, dialect coach.
