Rover Dramawerks continues their 19th Season with the regional premiere comedy Delirium's Daughters by Nicholas Korn. This will be the first production of Delirium's Daughters following the play's successful Off- and Off-Off-Broadway runs. Performances will be at Rover's theatre in Plano, located in Ruisseau Village at 221 W. Parker Rd, Suite 580, at the northwest corner of Parker and 75. Performances run May 2-18 on Thursdays and Fridays at 8:00 p.m. and on Saturdays at 3:00 and 8:00 p.m.
When four suitors (played Eric Befumo, Thomas McKee, Steven Pedro, and Tristan Spohn) arrive to ask for the hands of Signor Di Lirio's (played by Chuck E. Moore) three lovely daughters (Emily Arthur Davis, Sam Gonzalez, and Sara Jones), the old gentleman agrees that the girls should marry...as long as they have the approval of their mother. The problem is, his wife died three years ago, and he has gone so mad with grief that he still believes she is alive. However, one of the suitors is the town scoundrel, Giovio, who plays a series of kind-hearted but hilarious tricks that bring the father back to sanity and the intended couples together, while winning the heart of his love over his rival.
