OHIO IMPROMPTU
written by Samuel Beckett
directed by Elizabeth Goodyear

CAST

• Reader – Michael Holmes-Lauder
• Listener – Scott Shannon

The Reader reads, turning the pages, while the Listener listens — intently. One and the same, fighting the ‘old terror of night’ to retell a story from his life, the Listener hears the Reader’s words about a departed loved one, a haunting memory.
