DESCRIPTION

Seattle Premiere!
LOVE SONG
by John Kolvenbach
Directed by Kate Witt
Featuring Nick DeSantis, Heather Hawkins, and Christopher Zinovitch
January 27 – February 21, 2010

Oddball Beane is a modern day hermit, avoiding everyone but his career-focused sister and her cynical husband. His life is a shrinking, darkening world, until the night a beautiful thief breaks into his apartment. Suddenly all of the love songs make sense. His blissful transformation baffles his sister Joan, who finds her own marriage transfigured even as she tries to unravel the story behind Molly, Beane’s mysterious new love. Funny, enchanting and tender, this off-beat romantic comedy is the latest from a hot young playwright whose work has been produced from New York to London’s West End.

Recommended for ages 15 and older.

"One of the best new plays of the year. Richly comic and deeply touching. Outstanding. A smashing, compassionate new play." - Daily Telegraph (London).
