Sundays @ 7 Series
Presents Lonergan’s
THE WAVERLY GALLERY
ONE NIGHT ONLY
ONLY $5 at the Door
|
|
|
Sunday, September 17, 2023, @ 7:00 pm
The
Chatham Community Players is excited to present Kenneth Lonergan’s THE WAVERLY GALLERY as a part of “Sundays @ 7,” their successful Play
Reading Series. One Night ONLY at the Chatham Playhouse, 23 North
Passaic Avenue, in Chatham. Lynn Polan directs.
Gladys,
the elderly matriarch of the Green family, has run an art gallery in a
small Greenwich Village hotel for many years. The management wants to
replace her less-than-thriving gallery with a coffee shop. Always
irascible but now increasingly erratic, Gladys is a cause of concern to
her daughter, her son-in-law, and her grandson, from whose point of
view this poignant memory play is told. A wacky and heartrending look
at the effect of senility on a family the play was a success both on
and off-Broadway.
The
Cast:
Producers -
Leslie Williams Ellis and Gus Ibranyi
Tickets are $5 and can be purchased at
the door.
Patrons are encouraged to BYOB & Snacks!
