Early on in Lisa Kron's politically-charged romantic comedy/drama, In The Wake, audiences are reminded of a scene that traditionally takes place in many American households every fourth Thursday of November. While the rest of the family is ready to sit down to Thanksgiving dinner, there's one person pleading to keep the television on for just a little longer, obsessed with the score and loudly complaining about the officiating. Only this time it's Thanksgiving Day, 2000 and Kron's central character, Ellen (Marin Ireland), isn't concerned with a football game, but is jumping up and down in front of the MSNBC broadcast, wildly cheering for a come-from-behind Al Gore victory in the contested presidential election.
IN THE WAKE opened November 1 at the Public Theater (Artistic Director Oskar Eustis; Executive Director Andrew D. Hamingson). Written by Lisa Kron directed by Leigh Silverman, IN THE WAKE will continue through Sunday, November 21. Tickets are on-sale now.
