Bailey has lost her dog. She’s searched for it for over a year. One day, she’s walking in the park and sees him, and he’s being walked by someone else. This is a play about four people whose lives intersect over a dog. It’s about trying to get back what’s lost and examines how sometimes people can act like dogs and dogs can act like people.

Aug. 9
[Zoom]

Written by Chris Holbrook
Directed by Aaron Epstein

Cast: Torie Pate Perdue as Judith, Rachael Maye Aronoff as Giselle, David Derringer as Ruppert, Jeremy Cox as Oscar & Stage directions by Jeremy Cox

Pirouette is a comedy about memory, transitions and a life in the arts. Giselle is a dancer who is looking at life after dance. Judith is her sister who has already stopped dancing. When they run into a man they haven’t seen in years, it throws out of balance who and what they know about each other and their lives. As their memories of events clash, they each have to find a way to come together.

Through barriers to her physical state she must learn to speak, eat, walk, and love all over again in this raw, poetic, and inspiring piece of theatre.
