<div class="text_exposed_root text_exposed"><span class="text_exposed_show">THE CHAIRS, a tragic farce<br><br>Directed by Linda Shirey<br>Assistant director: Phoebe Baker<br>Featuring: Marty Egan, Stephen Henel, and Anna Kroup<br>
<br>Originally written in 1952, and subtitled by the author as “a tragic farce”, The Chairs is an absurdist play of the first order by a master innovator of the genre. The premise: an elderly couple spend their time collecting and inventorying chairs only to be overcome by the very objects that give their lives meaning.<br>
<br>THE LESSON, a comic drama<br>Directed by Neilson Jones<br>Featuring: Lucy Breyer, Vivian Hwang, and John Schnurr<br><br>Written in 1951, The Lesson illustrates Ionesco’s comic genius, where insanity and farce collide as a professor becomes increasingly frustrated with his hapless student, and the student with her mad teacher. This potent "comic drama" has the power to frighten and delight as only Absurdist plays can.<br>
