Written by one of America's foremost playwrights, Talley's Folly will touch the heart. The country is at war and climbing out of economic hardship, it is July 4th 1944 and Matt Freidman, a 42-year-old Jewish accountant, travels to rural Lebanon, MO to woo 31-year-old small town Protestant girl Sally Talley. Together, under the moonlight in a remote old boathouse, this unlikely pair considers the unpredictable waltz of romance. Lanford Wilson's valentine of play receives an intimate revival by Puzzle Piece Theatre's and stars acclaimed Michigan actors Katie Galazka and Samer Ajluni. The duo's resumes include nominations for Michigan's major theatrical awards- Wilde, Detroit Free Press, and numerous Rogue Gallery entries. The production is directed by Puzzle Piece's Producing Artistic Director D.B. Schroeder.Videos
