| Description: | University of the Pacific closes its season with Craig Lucas’ bright, sharp, and fast-paced, Off-Broadway hit, Blue Window. This contemporary comedy runs from April 16th-19th and April 22nd-24th in the Long Theatre on Pacific’s campus. Lisa Tromovitch is the founder and Producing Artistic Director of Livermore Shakespeare Festival and will be directing this Manhattan-based 1984 comedy. Tromovitch has assembled a diverse group of actors creating a powerful cast of performers. Five of Pacific’s graduating seniors are featured, showcasing the theatre department’s best graduates. Blue Window allows us a glimpse into the lives of seven so-called strangers from different cultures, occupations, and social classes. Libby, played by Alison Koch, hosts the dinner party as the guests and other characters prepare for the event. Sparks fly, punch flows, and personalities clash in this melting pot of a party. Blue Window by Craig Lucas celebrates the musicality of language with breezy comedic dialogue, references to 80’s culture and philosophical musings to both make us laugh and touch our hearts. Director, Lisa Tromovitch states, “Blue Window is a beautiful play written like music and at times ridiculously funny and at other's touching.” |
