Daniel Irizarry has a proposal. Anton Chekhov, deceased, cannot refuse. Daniel is down on one knee anyway, and Anton, giggling like a schoolgirl, puts another flower in his hair. A mangy dog puts his head in your lap, and, for some reason, you’re looking at the stage. Shadowy pirouettes sputter into quiet sobs. Irizarry collapses, drunk, and theatregoers take their seats. This is not to be missed. In a moment, he will crackle like a roman candle, spreading desire like butter, mouthing the hopes and dreams of old Russia, and acting like a jerk.

This new play about a man and a woman deals with such things as love, sex, violence and death. The entire course of a relationship is boiled down to the fulfillment of a contractual agreement over a single hour. At the end of the hour, the man and the woman are dead. A collaboration with other members of the class of 2010: Directed by Onur Karaoglu (Directing), Dramaturgy by David Schultz (Dramaturgy) and starring Meera Kumbhani & Jason Martin (both Acting).

Directed by Shira Millikowsky (Directing 2007) with Acting alumni Jeff Clarke (2005), Rebecca Lingafelter (2005), Rachel Jablin (2005), David Skeist (2006) and Liz Eckert (2008)

Five strangers. One inheritance. Infinite possibilities. People become pawns in a spiteful game of everyone for themselves in this serio-comedy. Witness how greed, self-worth, and morality govern who walks away with the loot!
