Twigs and Bone
Tiffany Antone
The play consists of four sections involving three sisters and their mother, each focusing on one of the women as she confronts various issues with the man in her life.
Emily is a recent widow, relocating to a new apartment, who finds herself attracted to the owner of the moving company.
Celia is the wife of a bigoted ex-Army Sergeant whose reunion with an old pal leaves her out in the cold.
Dorothy and her spouse discreetly try to learn if each has been faithful to the other as they celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary.
Last of all is Ma, the stubborn Irish matriarch who rises from her deathbed in order to have a priest sanctify her common-law marriage to a Dutchman.
"An affectionate celebration of a handful of very ordinary people who have managed to survive...Appealing as well as funny."
