Photo Flash: Contra Costa Civic Theatre Presents WELL
The hilariously complicated relationship of a daughter and her mother takes center stage when Contra Costa Civic Theatre (CCCT) presents Tony award-winner Lisa Kron's thought-provoking comedy, Well, directed by Susan E. Evans, from February 17-March 12. For tickets and information visit the theatre's website at www.ccct.org or call 510.524.9012.
As the playwright describes it, ""This play is not about my mother and me," begins the character of Lisa. But, of course, it is about her mother, and her mother's extraordinary ability to heal a changing neighborhood, despite her inability to heal herself. In this "solo show with people in it," Kron asks the provocative question: "Do we create our own illness?" The answers she gets are much more complicated than she bargained for as the play spins dangerously out of control into riotously funny and unexpected territory."Check out photos from the show below!
CCCT's production of Well features a stellar cast: Kate Tomatis Dunlop (Three Sisters, DMT; She Stoops to Conquer, Marin Shakes) as Lisa; Marlene Walker (Dividing the Estate, DMT; Hay Fever, Pittsburg Civic Theatre) as Ann; the ensemble includes Beth Chastain (The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, Town Hall Theatre); Pamela Drummer-Williams (You Can't Take It With You, CCCT; Nunsense, Altarena Playhouse); Reg Clay (Charlie's Aunt '66 and The Skin of our Teeth, DMT); and Ben Knoll (Strike Up the Band, 42nd Street Moon; A Funny Thing...Forum, Novato Theatre Company).
