THE ZOO STORY Begins Tonight at convergence-continuum

convergence-continuum continues its 2015 Season with Edward Albee's THE ZOO STORY, for one weekend only, running tonight, July 30 through August 1. The modern American classic is performed by Tom Kondilas and Clyde Simon and directed by Robert Hawkes as part of con-con's "Tweener" performances running between the regular Season shows.

THE ZOO STORY, set at a park bench on a Sunday afternoon, relates with ironic humor and unrelenting dramatic suspense, an extraordinary encounter between Peter, a middle-class
publishing executive, and Jerry, a permanent transient. Jerry intrudes on Peter's peaceful afternoon by interrogating him and compelling him to listen to stories about his life, and the troubling reason behind his visit to the zoo.
