One day in the 1920s, two literary legends -- Edith Wharton and F. Scott Fitzgerald -- met for tea, and then never spoke again. Tea With Edie and Fitz imagines that monumental meeting, jumping backward and forward in time to examine the lives of the two fascinating writers. What happened during their meeting to cause them to never speak again? Spanning the entire globe, from glittering expatriate Paris to roaring post-WWI Manhattan, the show explores each author's life. Fitzgerald shared his life with his beautiful and troubled Southern wife, Zelda, while Wharton shared hers with the ghost of her mentor and longtime companion Henry James. A look at the two writers' lives leads to questions of gender, sanity, time, the purpose of art, and the nature of love and loss. Learn More

Reviews & Ratings
Report as inappropriateRather boring and non-descript performance. Most evident spark of talent, personality and believability belonged to "Francesca." This was a forced farce and very disappointing. To sign off on a more pleasant note, Costumes were right on.
Report as inappropriateVery well done, great staging and good humor throughout! The venue is intimate, very comfortable, all seats have good view. Really a very enjoyable event
Report as inappropriateExcellent. Front row, great seats. Not quite half price, but what an excellent performance. Thanks, Goldstar! Thanks, Remy Bumppo Theatre!

Description
Figaro must outwit the Count's lustful advances towards his fiance and when his plotting reveals several other sexual games, the night culminates in mistaken identities and deliciously funny farce. Ranjit Bolt pens this retelling of Beaumarchais' play made famous in opera form by Mozart.
