Having a vision of the way ahead is fundamental.

The director who cannot collaborate with his (or her!) actors has mistaken his (or her) vocation.

Young directors simply must from time to time be hired by a theatrical institution, if only to correct its inevitable tendency to fossilize.

Five Women Wearing the Same Dress by Alan Ball

Overview

Five Women... grapples with questions about the nature of friendship and sexual relationships for generation which was born in the wake of the sexual revolution and which has come of age in the era of AIDS.

As they watch two of their peers celebrate what looks to be a less than promising union, five women and one man walk a tight rope between autonomy and commitment. The struggle to support one another, while at the same time striving to be more truthful than the examples set before them at this wedding reception, is at the core of Five Women Wearing the Same Dress.

Reviews

Chris Sampson, WHUS 91.7 FM:
" All five actresses do superb jobs of creating their characters... a well-balanced ensemble piece. Five Women has laughs and some very serious moments; making for an enjoyable (if somewhat unsettling) two hours at the theatre. It is well worth seeing as an example of what regional theatre can be — fresh, personal, and honest."
