ON STAGE II • FEBRUARY 13 - MARCH 16, 2008
"Shipwrecked! An Entertainment"

BY DONALD MARGULIES
DIRECTED BY EVAN CABNET

In Pulitzer Prize-winner Donald Margulies' new play, an old man named Louis De Rougemont finds that stardom is a fleeting thing.

Gaining notoriety at the turn of the century for his fantastic tale of being shipwrecked, living on a remote island with his beautiful islander wife and learning to ride sea turtles, De Rougemont recalls his adventures wistfully even while his audience becomes increasingly more skeptical.

This whimsical fantasy challenges audiences to think about the delicate dance between truth and fiction - are the quiet lives we lead enough to make a mark on the world?

How far do we go to be remembered and loved?
