Broadway veteran and OBIE Award-winner Kathleen Chalfant partners with John Doman of HBO’s The Wire for an exquisite portrayal of desire and infidelity. The story centers on Honor and George, who have been together for 32 years when a young and seductive journalist enters their lives. Suddenly, the sacred bond that holds this couple together begins to unravel at an alarming speed. Berkeley Rep Artistic Director Tony Taccone directs this tight, four-character drama. “Intelligent, powerful, and gripping,” raves the Times of London. In laying bare our most intimate institution, says London’s The Guardian, the play “brings fresh life” to a timeless tale of love and commitment.
