Whales of August at Dayton Playhouse

Our journey takes us to the shores of Maine in August, 1954 where we get to know two elderly, widowed sisters near the end of their lives. As they spend their summer, once again in this seaside house, the surroundings cause them to recall their relationship as young women. They reflect on the passage of time, and the bitterness, jealousies and misunderstandings that slowly festered over the years and kept them from establishing a true closeness in their relationship.
