Fullerton CA—STAGEStheatre is proud to present the Orange County Premiere of Yasmina Reza’s
Life X 3(Trois Versions de la Vie), directed by Gary Krinke opening March 1, 2013.

Henry and Sonia are having a difficult time with their wakeful six year old son; but Henry has other worries. About to publish two years’ worth of research on the flatness of galaxy halos, he’s desperate to make a good impression on the distinguished astrophysicist, Hubert Finidori. When Hubert arrives for dinner with his rebellious wife in tow on the wrong night, the fact that there is no food in the house (merely an ample amount of Sancerre) is only one of the evening’s potentially disastrous elements of the play.

Under a veneer of decorum, the acid words, tensions and power games expose broken dreams and failure. Cracks in certainty, the shifting dynamics of married life and the elusive nature of power are the main ingredients of this doomed evening. Life X 3 fluctuates between melancholy, hilarity, cruelty, and metaphysical musings as the evening degenerates into three possible scenarios.

Yasmina Reza is a French playwright, novelist and actress. From Conversation after a Burial (1987) and The Unexpected Man (2000) to the recent God of Carnage (2006), her plays have been performed worldwide and translated into 35 languages. Art (1994), which became an international phenomenon, won the French Moliere Award for best author, best play, and best production, before winning the prestigious Tony Award in New York in 1998.

Starring in Life X 3 are: Mo Arii, Frank Tryon, Cynthia Ryanen, and Karl Schott. Traci Mills Courtney, Vincent Aniceto, Danielle Keaton, and Mark Coyan. **There are two casts and they will be performing on alternating evenings.
