Staged reading of a play. Written by Jason Robert Downs. Directed by Aliah Whitmore. Presented by Theatre 40.
Judith Child was a complicated woman who came from a wealthy British family and married the brilliant, charismatic Nobel Prize-winning scientist, Benjamin Child. They have a son, Dorian, who never quite grew into the man that Benjamin hoped. Upon her death Benjamin and Dorian are left rudderless. Without Judith's strong and guiding presence they cut themselves off from the world and fall into an unusual way of keeping her spirit alive, thus delaying their grief. When Benjamin injures himself during a fall, the two men are forced to allow an East Indian medical professional to tend the wound, disrupting the routine, challenging their mental and physical capacities, and breaking the spell the house is under.
The cast includes Anthony Foux, David Hunt Stafford, Terry Davis, Aliah Whitmore, and Jason Wright Downs.
