Review: St. Louis Actors' Studio's WITH is a Humorous and Melancholic End-of-Life Story
by James Lindhorst - Apr 11, 2025
WITH is the authentic love story of two cantankerous and snarky old folks whose time together has beaten the odds. Their life has been blessed with longevity and fond memories. They have lived a long enough to raise a child and experience joy, sorrow, happiness, grief, and the full complement of human emotions. But now, Minnie and Clifford are facing illness and their own mortality. Pileggi’s restrained direction and her actors’ honest portrayals keep WITH from wallowing in cloying insincerity and sadness. Reichert, Weinsting, and Pileggi blends equal parts humor, sweetness, and melancholy to tell Lewis’ end-of-life story with dignity and grace.
