More Details About This Event:

Compass Theatre is excited to inaugurate its new name with one of the most stimulating plays to have excited the Broadway stage in recent years. Three Days of Rain tells the story of three people whose relationship goes beyond the usual in ways they could never have anticipated. When their fathers die, the surprising secrets and legacies of each are revealed dramatically and painfully, yet with great humor, wit and irony.

One of San Diego's most distinguished directors, Rosina Reynolds, brings together some of San Diego's finest actors to present to us a memorable performance.

The play centers on Walker, his sister Nan, and their childhood friend Pip, who all meet in an unoccupied loft in lower Manhattan in 1995 to divide the legacy of their late fathers who were partners in a renowned architecture firm. In an effort to bring some peace to their own lives, the three search for clues that might explain what had gone on between their fathers, and the women in their lives, decades before. The story then shifts to that earlier time, with the same three actors portraying members of the previous generation in the same loft during the fateful 1960 "three days of rain" which gives the play its title.
