Thanks to enthusiastic critical and audience response, Custom Made Theatre Company is extending the run of Edward Albee's Pulitzer Prize-winning Three Tall Women through December 14. It is one of Albee's most personal plays; he continues to explore themes of mortality, the elasticity of personality, and the ways we deceive ourselves through the character of a 92-year old woman on the verge of death, engaging with two younger selves - a knowing 56-year old and a contemptuous 26-year old. Three Tall Women challenges audiences, asking us to be as honest, fierce and unblinking as Mr. Albee in looking at how we live, and how we die.
Directed by Katja Rivera, who last directed Custom Made's award-winning production of Eurydice. Three Tall Women plays through December 14 at the Gough Street Playhouse, 1620 Gough Street in San Francisco.
Runs through Dec. 14; Thurs-Sat 8:00 pm, Sun 2:30 pm (11/30, 12/14), 7pm (11/30, 12/7)
Tickets $20-50; Opening Night (includes reception) $50
