The House of Mirth

Pay: $100

Description:

Dawn Keeler's The House of Mirth is an adaptation of Edith Wharton's classic novel. This moving play vividly brings to the stage Lily Bart's flamboyant progress through the glorious whirl of New York's high society, circa 1905, and her tragic fall. The satirical love story is staged as a series of flashbacks that are seamlessly interwoven with the present. Faithful to Edith Wharton's distinct style of dialogue, this dramatic version opened to acclaim in London.

Cast ranges from 25-45 in age: 5 men, 5 women playing upper crust New York socialites at the turn of the century.

Time Commitment:

Sunday through Thursday, July 21st - August 30, 2014
