Rising Action Theatre Presents THE SUM OF US, 04/22-05/30
Rising Action Theatre will present 'The Sum of Us', a love story between a father and his gay son, to be staged from April 22 to May 30, 2010. The play is written by David Stevens, and directed by Steven Chambers.
A hit Off-Broadway and later a film starring Russell Crowe, this play by gifted Australian writer David Stevens explores the volatile relationship between an aging widower and his gay son. After meeting in a local pub, Jeff and a young gardener, Greg, hit it off and begin to date. When he meets Jeff's stubborn, opinionated Dad however, Greg begins to back off. Meanwhile Dad too has a new flame: a woman he met through a dating service. Put off by Jeff's homosexuality, prosaic Joyce too pulls away.
"A father-son play with a big heart. Its first act has plenty of laughs, while the second half balances humor and pathos and includes a surprising conclusion...ought to run in resident theaters and summer stock for years to come."-Variety
The play will run from April 22 to May 30, 2010. For tickets and more information, please visit risingactiontheatre.tix.com or call 1 800 595-4849. Rising Action Theatre is located at 840 E. Oakland Park Blvd, in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
