This two-person drama concerns reunited criminals as they try to find a straight path in the world. After her release from prison, Lorraine heads straight to the only other person who she has felt close to in years: her former cellmate Marie. While locked up, the two shared everything, but on the outside, their friendship threatens to destroy their fragile freedom. Playwright Chloe Moss won the Susan Smith Blackburn Playwriting Prize in 2009 for This Wide Night. Seattle Public Theater's production is directed by Sheila Daniels and stars Emily Chisholm (The 13th of Paris, Tryst) and Christina Mastin as the ex-convicts. Learn More

I enjoyed the Duck Variations very much. The stories were great, not to mention the interaction between the two characters. The second act, Sexual Perversity in Chicago, I guess was true its title: perverse. The acting was excellent and I love how the set was so creative, making use of each space.Written on Jun 15 2009

I really loved the "Duck Variations." It was very "Waiting for Godot" and Derrah and LeBow were excellent as always.Written on Jun 29 2009
I enjoyed "Sexual Perversity..." and thought it was a real reflection of its time and showed, sadly, how some things haven't really changed. I was too young to see it when it was first performed in the 70's but my parents saw it and liked it.
Overall, it was another great evening of ART theater!
I enjoyed the cabaret seating at Zero Arrow. It was my first experience in the venue.

Very good, particularly Duck Variations (Derrah and LeBow are great, as usual).Written on Jun 22 2009
The cabaret seating and drinks served tableside were a surprise -- a nice change from typical stadium-style seating, but the chairs are a bit uncomfortable.
