Sane, by Jessica Foster, a play
At the Actor's Studio of Newburyport
Directed by Marc Clopton with Anna Smulowitz, Maria Sam Boyd, Bonnie
Lake, Madelein Beaudoin, Kit Dyer, Arlene Barnard, Mary Shapiro, Bruce
Duveau.
Three actresses tackle the complexities of one woman as they each portray a different aspect of her personality. Whether she is home, at work, or with friends, “Woman” tackles every day problems in ways that are unique to her, while her self consciousness remains poignantly universal. As she continues to spiral down a path of self-pitying, she is constantly choosing between feeling sorry for herself and reaching out to others. The closer she comes to the edge of sanity, the more comical her attempts are in their desperation, while remaining grounded in emotions we all aspire to avoid.

Comments:
I love the Readers Theater format for plays. It gives a
hands on insight to part of the process.
