50 minutesHaldane Theatre
Two one-act plays by an acclaimed playwright. In the first, a married couple’s early-morning clash in a hotel room offers a witty look at the complexities of marriage. The second, a monologue, shifts to a Manhattan police station, where a tense interrogation about a mysterious crime evolves into a poignant meditation on love and commitment. Contrasting in tone yet deeply connected, these plays explore human relationships with Wilson’s signature depth and nuance.
