Alley Theatre Presents Theresa Rebeck's Mauritius
by Reynard Loki
- Mar 16, 2009
Theresa Rebeck (creator of the Alley?s success The Scene and Bad Dates) returns to the Alley with Mauritius. The title, Mauritius, refers to an island off the coast of Africa from which a now highly collectible stamp, described as 'the crown jewel of philately,' was issued in the age of Victoria. Like the Maltese Falcon, the Mauritius stamp is the fraught object of desire for an assortment of shady characters with different and mysterious backgrounds and motives, who move through the twists of the plot's crosses and double-crosses. Recommended for mature audiences.
Mauritius by Theresa Rebeck and directed by Scott Schwartz begins Friday, April 10 and runs through Sunday, May 3 on the Hubbard Stage.
