Frankie and Johnny in the Clair de Lune

Frankie and Johnny in the Clair de Lune

Jan 24- Feb 22, 2020

By Terrance McNally, Dir. Wendy Katz Hiller

A critical and popular success, this bittersweet comedy combines poignancy and laughter as it traces the unlikely romance that begins to develop between two middle-aged “losers.”

*this show contains strong language and sexual situations, and is recommended for adult audiences

“Terrence McNally has…a hit…in FRANKIE AND JOHNNY IN THE CLAIR DE LUNE. A romantic two-hander with character depth and an abundance of laughs…” —Variety. “…Terrence McNally’s very sweet, extraordinarily funny, romantic and ribald comedy…” —NY Post. “Terrence McNally is one of our most original and audacious dramatists, and one of our funniest…” —The New Yorker.

Featuring Krista Schafer Ewbank as Frankie and Patrick Loos as Johnny.  Lighting design by Harley Miah, Scenic Design by Stephanie Baugher. Property design by Reyna DeSilva.  Stage managed by Jillian Joie Dahl.
