Simon Stephens' HARPER REGAN to Play T. Schreiber Theatre, 5/4-6/4
On a bright autumn night in Manchester, a woman named Harper Regan walks away from her job, her home, her husband and her daughter. The play named after her, 'Harper Regan' by English playwright Simon Stephens, stunningly reveals life on the cusp of the working class in modern British society. The author is the 2015 TONY Award-winner for best play ('The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time'). This 2008 play is a dramatic Odyssey navigating family, love and redemption. T. Schreiber Theatre, 151 West 26th Street, will present the piece May 4 to June 4, directed by Terry Schreiber.

Dead Letter Office Closes 7/18 at the Chicago DCA Storefront Theater
The plot to Dead Letter Office was convoluted. The ending, in an effort to turn a thoughtful relationship piece into a suspenseful thriller, just came off as childish. I would call the characters Dickensian, except for the fact that Dickens wrote them better... about one hundred and forty years earlier.
