Playwright-in-residence,
Madeleine George began her relationship with Two River nine years ago
with the world premiere production of her play Seven Homeless Mammoths
Wander New England, a deliciously smart and funny “academic sex comedy”
about life in a small university town. In George’s play, Dean Wreen’s college
is in dire financial straits, and a plan to close its on-campus natural history
museum is sending unexpected shock waves in every direction—just as the Dean’s
ex-girlfriend has come back into her life. This definitely complicates things
with her much younger girlfriend, Andromeda. Neither budget cuts nor the
shadows cast by seven about-to-be-homeless mammoths are any match for the sweet
taste of romance in this hilarious and deeply moving play.
