Body of Water Running in West End

Kate Braun & Peter Josephson in NHTP's A Body of WaterTOP EVENT

New Hampshire Theatre Project and Act One continue their 2012-13 season March 15-24 with an exploration of the intriguing relationship between identity, reality, and memory. In A Body of Water, playwright Lee Blessing poses an intriguing question: would you know who you are if you suddenly had no memories? (Continued below)

 

An attractive, middle-aged couple wakes up one morning in an isolated summer house high above a body of water.  The weather is fine. The view is magnificent.  There's only one problem. Neither of them can remember who they are or how they came to be there. 

With growing alarm, spiked with lightning flashes of humor, they try to make sense of the situation. When a young woman arrives, they are certain she will solve their quandary. But instead she offers them a shifting pattern of scenarios, which only lead to more questions. If memory, that invisible record of past experience, disappears, do our dreams and desires for the future cease to propel us forward? Without past or future, can we know who we are?  With the present as our sole reality, are we left with nothing...or everything?

Featuring Peter Josephson, Kate Braun, and Ashley Risteen. With direction by Stephanie Voss Nugent and lighting & scenic design by Meghann Beauchamp.
