SKYLIGHT

BY DAVID HARE
DIRECTED BY BILL PETERS

January 12-21, Potrero Stage

THE PLAY

Broadway and the West End applauded this intensely clear-sighted and compassionate play about a love affair. Kyra is surprised to see the son of her former lover in the doorway of her chilly London flat. He hopes she will reconcile with his distraught, now widowed, father. Is the gap between them unbridgeable, or can they resurrect their relationship?

Bill Peters directs this deeply compassionate and clear-sighted play at Potrero Stage, featuring Lana Palmer as Kyra Hollis, Bruce Avery as Tom Sergeant and Tyler Aguallo as Edward Sergeant.

“Luminously beautiful and wildly truthful… a fascinating play [that] tears at the heart” — The New York Post
 
“Absolutely splendid” — The New York Times

RED with Bread & Butter Theatre

In March 2018, I will direct John Logan’s RED for Bread & Butter Theatre.

 THE PLAY:

Master abstract expressionist Mark Rothko has just landed the biggest commission in the history of modern art, a series of murals for New York’s famed Four Seasons Restaurant. In the two fascinating years that follow, Rothko works feverishly with his young assistant, Ken, in his studio on the Bowery. But when Ken gains the confidence to challenge him, Rothko faces the agonizing possibility that his crowning achievement could also become his undoing. Raw and provocative, RED is a searing portrait of an artist’s ambition and vulnerability as he tries to create a definitive work for an extraordinary setting.

Red was nominated seven Tony Awards, winning the 2010 Tony for Best Play.

Runs March 23-31st at the Phoenix Theatre in San Francisco

Featuring:

Bruce Avery as Rothko
Nick Moore as Ken

Set design by: Giulio Cesare Perrone
