This live-streamed evening of theatre is about the chance encounter, the perfect moment, the right word, the time when everything aligns and goes right, or not. It’s about the fleeting chances we have to get it right.
David Ives is an American classic; his smart, funny comedies like Sure Thing, Time Flies, and Philip Glass Buys a Loaf of Bread, have been delighting audiences for 30 years. Barrie Cole is a Chicago-based playwright/performer who has created a series of “one-sided telephone conversations” inspired by our lives in 2020. Theatre Fairfield has interwoven the two into 90 minutes of great theatre.
Theatre Fairfield, the production wing of Fairfield University’s Theatre Program, Department of Visual & Performing Arts, has been performing at the Quick Center since it opened its doors in 1989, but now it’s home. We joyously enter our new partnership with the Quick and invite you to join us for this most unusual inaugural season which, in Fall 2020, will be completely online. Please visit our website, https:www.theatre-fairfield.org, to find out more about us and this show.
Since Mr. Ives's work relies on a little bit of background information, we would like to provide some. Check out our website’s new digiturgy section. The digiturgy web page, which our Dramaturgy PI Kierstin Jones meticulously crafted, details the context surrounding our shows. It provides fascinating and helpful information about the lives of Leon Trotsky, Philip Glass, and David Attenborough, all important figures who are featured in three of the plays in Love & Imagination.
