CITY GARAGE THEATRE PRESENTS AT TRACK 16:

Sganarelle
or The Imaginary Cuckold

by Moliere
Through September 11, 2011
Sundays at 4 p.m.
Admission $25; Students/Seniors with ID $15

The world premiere of a new version in English
Moliere’s sparkling classic comedy of errors in a lively new version for City Garage. In this wicked piece of satire on fidelity and honor, two couples mistakenly believe they have betrayed each other. The more they argue, scheme, plot, and attempt to revenge themselves, the more deeply they get entangled in their own delusions. And of course, in best Moliere fashion, when their fury and wounded vanity at last reaches a fever pitch, new complications make things even worse! A fast and furious romp of jilted lovers, deceived husbands, coniving wives, and devious young girls doing their very best to, in the end, do nothing but fool themselves.

4.48 Psychosis

by Sarah Kane

Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays 8:00 p.m.
No performance on Thursday, September 8


Admission $25; Students/Seniors with ID $15

What happens when a young woman’s brain splinters into fragments and becomes a battlefield at war with itself? Counting backwards by sevens, a so-called test of sanity, she tries desperately to recover a world that is slipping rapidly through her fingers. In the end, she claws desperately to free herself from the nightmare. Acclaimed British playwright Sarah Kane in her beautiful and haunting last work, takes us to the edge of the unknowable with painful clarity, wrestling with the aches that drive us to the brink of madness in our 21st century sickness.

Special discounted admission when you purchase in advance for both shows: $35 general; $25 Students/Seniors with ID. Go to www.citygarage.org for more information.
