Majestic is thrilled to present Shakespeare’s timeless tragedy in a very contemporary “in-yer-face” staging set "right here...right now." With high stakes and propulsive emotions, you’ll experience the classic story with fresh eyes… ”For now these hot days is the mad blood stirring!”
Lists is a hilarious, and touching look at the toll Alzheimer’s takes on a parent-child relationship. It magnificently reveals the humor within the tragedy, without taking away from the seriousness of the issue. Ma cares about ribbons and bows, intransitive verbs and keeping to her rigid schedule. Dot uses a wicked sense of humor to sort out the tangle of her mother’s mind. Together they struggle with Ma’s inevitable decline, while Sis phones in her advice from afar. In and out of the sinewy webs of Ma’s fleeting awareness, retracing paths they have traveled countless times, Ma and Dot drive toward understanding and arrive with some sense of surprise at the destination of comfort.
