Marin Theatre will investigate family mythologies in the West Coast Premiere of the intimate, riveting Broadway play “Pictures from Home.” Playwright Sharr White transports late Marin photographer Larry Sultan’s landmark photo memoir to the stage. In this moving and theatrically inventive work, Marin County resident Sultan turns the lens on his parents, wrestling with generational differences to shed new light on the past. Travelling over a decade from his Greenbrae home to his parents’ stylish tract house in the San Fernando Valley, Sultan seeks the truth behind his memories, searching for a deeper understanding of both his parents and himself through interviews and photography. This captivating and poignant adaptation breathes life into a portrait of a man’s undying love for his parents. Bay Area theatre mainstay Victor Talmadge will play father Irving Sultan alongside Daniel Cantor as Larry Sultan and Susan Koozin as mother Jean Sultan. Acclaimed theatre director Jonathan Moscone helms this new production.
Performance Times: Wednesdays-Fridays at 7:30pm; Saturdays at 2pm & 7:30pm; Sundays at 2pm & 4pm
