The Weekend Theater Presents

Joe Egg
By Peter Nichols
January 16, 17, 23, 24, 30, 31

Joe Egg, based on Nichols' own experiences of raising a handicapped child, is a gem that illustrates how tragedy and comedy can co-exist in one play. With its sharp humor, cunning use of vaudeville techniques within a drawing-room play and unsettling arguments about euthanasia, this masterpiece deserves its place in Britain’s National Theatre's list of the 100 most significant plays of the twentieth century. The play centers on a British couple who are struggling to raise their only child, a severely handicapped girl with whom they cannot communicate. She is incontinent and unable to communicate. Taking care of her has occupied nearly every moment of her parent's lives since her birth, and this has taken a heavy toll on their marriage.
Directed by Duane Jackson.
