Frankie & Johnny in the Clair de Lune by Terrence McNally

This bittersweet comedy combines poignancy and laughter as it traces the unlikely romance that begins to develop between two middle-aged “losers.” Directed by Jared Doren, featuring Sara Mackie and Dylan Shelton

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.” Frankie and Johnny are discovered in bed. It is their first encounter, after having met several weeks ago working at the same restaurant, and Frankie is hopeful that Johnny will now put on his clothes and depart, so she can return to her usual routine of watching TV and eating ice cream. But Johnny, a compulsive talker (and romantic), has other ideas. He is the veteran of one broken marriage already and she has had more disappointments than delights in life, and neither of them is in the bloom of youth. Yet out of their sometimes touching, sometimes hilarious interplay the promise of a relationship beyond a “one-night stand” begins to emerge.
