Players by the Sea's A MOON FOR THE MISBEGOTTEN Closes March 27
Jacksonville's Players by the Sea's production of A MOON FOR THE MISBEGOTTEN will close on March 27th.
In MISBEGOTTEN, three outcast characters do battle with the deepest yearnings of the human heart during one whiskey-soaked night. Set on a dilapidated Connecticut farm in the early 1920's, this drama focuses on Josie, a strapping country girl whose outward bravado masks a sensitive core; her crafty, hot-tempered Irish father and their landlord, Jim Tyrone, a broken-down actor and alcoholic who is haunted by memory and unable to express his love for Josie.
After the original 1957 Broadway production, the play has been revived frequently, including a 1973 production in which Jason Robards, Jr. and Colleen Dewhurst made an indelible impression. A Moon for the Misbegotten was most recently revived in 2006.
The cast stars Greg Morgan, Zeina Salame, Jason Collins, Joshua Taylor, and Thomas Trauger.
