Description: | | Three contemporary plays from Europe collide on the USF TAR 120 stage.
Painkillers. Three women, all friends, all looking at life from different perspectives. A married woman, pretending to be happy with her philandering husband, while underneath desperately wanting a baby.
An unmarried singleton, who looks to be the life of the party, looking for love in the wrong places. And their unstable friend, probing for what she likes in herself and not finding what she is looking for.
All of them wanting to be ok, but searching for something to numb them. Written by Serbian playwright, Neda Radulovic , directed by Lisa Letterle. June 1, 9, and 13 at 8pm / June 10 at 3pm
Terminus. Interwoven stories of a soul stealing bargains, fantastical rescues and brave
determination. These stories, told in firsthand accounts by the characters in stunning soliloquy, take place over the course of a single night in Dublin. One man, who is strangled by shyness, resorts to
terrible violence. A woman is saved by an unlikely creature. And a former schoolteacher stalks a violent bully through the streets. Written by Irish playwright Mark O’Rowe , directed by Mary Spurlock
. June 2, 8, and 14 at 8pm / June 3 at 3pm
Herjólfur Has Stopped Loving. Enter the mind of a man who is coming to grips with the fact that he has stopped loving his wife. Is this reality of fantasy? Is his violence and scandal we hear about
real or a window into his mind? See the steps Herjolfur takes to reconcile his inability to reconnect to his love. . Written by Icelandic playwright Sigtryggur Magnason, directed by Lauren Allison. June 6,
7, 15 and 16 at 8pm
