The Cherry Orchard by Anton Chekhov

February 23-March 10, 2012

This Russian Classic is as important today as it was a century ago when first performed at the famous Moscow Art Theatre.  This comic-drama presents themes of cultural futility: the aristocracy to maintain its status, the bourgeoisie to find meaning in its newfound materialism, and the rise of the middle class.  Translated into many languages and produced around the world, many major directors in the West have interpreted this masterpiece, including Charles Laughton, Peter Brook, Andrei Serban, Eva Le Gallienne, Jean-Louis Barrault and Tyrone Guthrie. The play's influence has also been widely felt in dramatic works by many including Eugene O'Neill. George Bernard Shaw and Arthur Miller.  Directed by Lon Winston.

Eudora's Box by Kristin Carlson

June 21-July 7, 2012

TRTC's 2010 New Play Reading selection.  When "Pop" is diagnosed with Alzheimer's, his three adult children swoop in to plan his future.  As his memory begins to slip, he grows desperate to find Eudora's Box.  The unexpected contents force the family to reevaluate their perceptions of the woman they knew as wife and mother.  A bittersweet family comedy, Eudora's Box proves the adage that it's
often those closest to us that we know the least.  Director pending based on casting!
