Theater Voices will present a staged reading of  LATER LIFE by A.R.  
Gurney directed by Ed. Lange.

Performances of LATER LIFE, a witty portrait of rekindled romance,  
will be given at Steamer No. 10 Theatre, 500 Western Avenue in Albany  
on Friday, February 13 at 8, Saturday February 14 at 3 and 8, and  
Sunday February 15 at 3. Admission is free.

Set at a party overlooking Boston Harbor, this comedy-drama  
dramatizes themes of lost opportunity and personal realization. The  
main characters are Austin, who has spent his life in anticipation of  
misfortune, and Ruth, a multiple divorcée whose personal existence is  
spinning out of control. The numerous other guests, all played by  
just a few actors, hope that the reuniting of these two lost souls  
will allow them to find together, the happiness that individually  
they’ve missed. The innate desperation of their plight is leavened by  
Gurney’s characteristic wit and gentle humor.

A.R. Gurney is one of America’s most produced playwrights, renowned  
for his incisive portraits of the country’s upper class Wasp culture.  
Among his most notable works are THE COCKTAIL HOUR, LOVE LETTERS, and  
THE DINING ROOM.
