The Windsor Repertory
Theatre presents DEWPOINT a new play written by Vincent Sessa.
Directed by Elfin Frederick Vogel, previews begin Thursday, May 11th,
before the official press opening Saturday, May 13th at the Hudson Guild
Theatre.
A couple in their early forties offers a
temporary home to a young, recently married woman who is drifting away
from her husband. Like a modern Pandora, the young woman opens a
provocative new world of feeling and emotion to the married couple.
The wife's longings for close
friendship are fulfilled and realized as, simultaneously, her husband's
attraction to the young woman leads to a steamy affair. Over the
course of a short summer, the explosive mixture of love and friendship,
hope and desire, sex and betrayal threatens to detonate. The lives of
all are changed forever as DEWPOINT draws to its tragic/comic
conclusion.
