Eleanora Duse Dies in Pittsburgh
by Don Nigro
Synopsis
In a room in a hotel in Pittsburgh, on the last night of her life, Eleanora Duse is tormented by her ex-lover, the insufferable but charming Italian playwright D'Annunzio, who appears from behind the cupboard, her great rival Sarah Bernhardt, who comes out of a trunk, Henrik Ibsen, who is hiding under the bed, and Mussolini, who comes in the window, and her angry and neglected daughter.
A very funny and moving play about the terror and holiness of the theatre.
