Peterborough Players to Present Sharr White's ANNAPURNA Next Month

After twenty years apart, Emma tracks her estranged ex-husband, Ulysses, to a trailer park in the middle of nowhere for a final reckoning. Now after decades apart, the former couple can at last be truthful with each other as they revisit the events of their last night together. What unfolds is a visceral and profound meditation on love and loss with the simplest of theatrical elements: two people in one room. ANNAPURNA is a breathtaking story about the longevity of love.

The San Francisco Chronicle declared that "Sharr White's ANNAPURNA is a comic and gripping duet...The closer [the characters] get to understanding what drove them apart, the more engrossed we become in watching them draw together." And the Huffington Post felt that"...at the heart of each character is a lyricism that simply can't be suffocated. Sharr White has created two fine and ferociously damaged people caught in the emotional whirlpool of not being able to live with or without each other."

ANNAPURNA stars Artistic Director Gus Kaikkonen (RED, Laughing Stock), Players favorite Lisa Bostnar (Charley's Aunt, Born Yesterday) and is Directed by Managing Director Keith Stevens.

Performances are July 6-17, Tuesday-Sunday at 7:30pm and Saturdays at 8pm. Tickets can be purchased by calling the box office at 603-924-7585 or online at www.peterboroughplayers.org. ANNAPURNA is Rated R due to strong language and partial nudity.

The Peterborough Players theatre is air-conditioned, handicapped accessible, is equipped with a hearing assistance system and is located at 55 Hadley Rd, Peterborough, NH 03458.
