South Coast Repertory, 655 Town Center Dr, Costa Mesa, CA, 92626

In 1968, George buys a suburban Southern California home—a stop on his way to something bigger—and hires Audrey as a housekeeper. In 1991, Robert is still living there, itching to start his own life. Thirty years later, Joseph returns home, still struggling with a secret that holds him back. With humor and heart, this multigenerational drama revolves around three Black men, their journeys to choose love and the woman who holds them all together.
Recommended for ages 16+
A co-production with Arena Stage. Part of the Pacific Playwrights Festival.
Performances run Apr. 25-May 23

Book Carnival

Please join us for a Book Carnival In-Person Event on Saturday, May 9, at 2:00 P.M., with author LAUREN OPPER and her debut book, LET NOTHING ASTONISH YOU.
<a href="https://www.annesbookcarnival.com/events/#april11" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.annesbookcarnival.com/events/#may9</a>
Lieutenant Carl Sarabia, a newly retired homicide detective, moves with his wife Greta from Houston, Texas to Glamis, Connecticut to be closer to their daughter Sarah and her family. The idyllic river town is upended when Merlin Glenmore is found murdered on April Fools’ Day, midway through his seance-themed birthday party at the place he despised the most, The Glenmore-Pace Castle, a gothic mansion built by his great-great grandfather, and now a museum run by his sister Jade. Merlin is notorious in Glamis for his abrupt second marriage to a much younger woman only a month after his first wife’s tragic death.
There is no shortage of suspects present at the party who wanted Merlin dead. Only two of the guests do not have alibis-and one of them is Carl’s son-in-law. Carl swore to Greta he wouldn’t involve himself in any more homicide cases, but will he be able to stay out of this one? Meanwhile, Greta conspires with her daughter and in-laws to involve Carl in solving the murder without his knowledge.Remember, it’s always fun at The Carnival!
