Jobsite Theater is proud to offer the southeastern United States premiere of Sharr White's hilarious and heartfelt meditation on love and loss, Annapurna, which plays tonight, April 29 - May 24, 2015, in the Shimberg Playhouse at the Straz Center where Jobsite is resident theater company. Scroll down for a sneak peek at the cast!

Annapurna is a moving and explosive new play by critically-acclaimed emerging playwright Sharr White, who had two plays running on Broadway in 2014. Driven by the emotionally-charged relationship between an estranged husband and wife, Jobsite's production stars Bay area stage icons Paul Potenza and Angela Bond as Ulysses and Emma.

Wearing nothing but an apron and an oxygen tank Ulysses unexpectedly finds his wife Emma knocking on his trailer door as he's making his dog dollar-store sausage on the stove. It's been 20 years since their marriage was torn apart by an event that Ulysses can't remember and Emma can't forget. In the spirit of some of the greatest American dramas, Annapurna is built upon the hopefulness of reconciliation and the simplest of setups - two people alone in a room. Passionate, funny, fierce.

For the Tampa premier, the play is co-directed by real-life husband and wife David M. Jenkins and Summer Bohnenkamp. The production stars Angela Bond (Emma) and Paul Potenza's (Ulysses).

Annapurna officially opens to the general public on May 1 and runs through May 24, 2015. All tickets to public performances are $28. Click here for more information.
