"Not only does this brilliantly original play stimulate you, it also entertains you." Newsday.
This 1975 Pulizter prize-winner is not strictly a drama but has elements of comedy, fantasy, satire, and absurdism.
Set on the dunes of a quiet beach, EDWARD ALBEE’S SEASCAPE explores, not uncustomarily, two of his favorite subjects: marriage and relationships. With his signature ironic wit and razor-sharp perception, Albee introduces Nancy and Charlie, a couple facing retirement who argue with comfortable familiarity about how to spend the rest of their lives. Nancy craves new adventure; Charlie really wants just to retire.
When a second couple, Sarah and Leslie arrive on the beach, a pitched encounter, both surreal and profound, ensues. It seems that Sarah and Leslie are also at a turning point in their lives and—let it be said—they just happen to be very special.
