On the Verge
Just got back from an excellent matinee performance of On the Verge at The Westport Country Playhouse. The description reads, "This delightful comedy takes us on an exploration of Terra Incognita with three sister sojourners who hearken from 1888. These ladies yearn for and experience the future encountering modern marvels such as Mr. Coffee, Cool Whip, egg beaters and trousers!" It is great fun and full of intereting words and cultural references. The production was great and such fun to watch!
If you happen to be in Westport for... oh, perhaps another event next weekend, the play runs from March 9 – 25, 2006 and would be a fun thing to do if you're in town early (there's a Saturday matinee on April 18th at 4pm)
Mom and I saw it a million years ago somewhere (we think perhaps 1985/1986 at Empty Space in Seattle?) and always remembered really liking it (what's not to like about a time traveling set of women explorers with eggbeaters and cool whip!!!)
