“The last show is always a very strange affair. It’s like a party, a great buzz of excitement. But then each actor will leave, with laughter still ringing in the air and a cheery wave. Then it stops. And as you watch each of them walk down the street, they look terribly lonely. That’s the thing about it, you see. After all the applause and elation, we walk home alone. And that’s who actors are – the happiest, saddest people you’ll ever meet.”
A touching and hilarious comedy about an actress making her farewell performance.
The Actress had its world premiere at the Woodinville Repertory Theatre in September 2014. It has since had productions in Germany, Brazil, Russia, the UK and Australia.
