A New Play by Tom Parks
One of Germany’s greatest actors and his wife are hunkered down in a Munich hovel waiting anxiously for the conquering Americans who are about the take the city. Before the war, Manfred Lohre was celebrated for his portrayal of King Lear. That stage is now dark, and the city is in ruins from constant bombarding while the couple struggle to make sense of the war and find an elusive peace in their own tension-filled lives.
The play opens Friday, May 1st through Sunday, May 24th. Performance times are Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30pm and Sundays at 2:00pm. Tickets are $35, available by calling (831) 717-7373.
