Finally, this noon, some
entertainment news for you! A new play made its world debut
this weekend at Saugatuck's Mason Street Warehouse. SCENERY is
the story of Richard and Marion Crain, a married couple that's
made a life and a career on the stage. Ironically enough, in SCENERY,
they're working on a play called THE ANNIVERSARY WAKE, and
while we don't see them performing on stage in THE ANNIVERSARY
WAKE, we get quite a performance backstage in SCENERY.
The entire play is set in the dressing room where Richard and
Marion duke it out over everything! While married, we learn,
that they have not been intimate in years, Richard is gay and
Marion is more a best friend than a wife. Their story is about
regret and pain, but also a friendship that somehow endures
just about everything. Ed Dixon and Lynne
Wintersteller are fantastic as Richard and Marion.
And after this, you'll always wonder what goes on backstage
and what are the real lives of those actors like when the curtain
falls.
