    Add Review/Comment

    This radiant gem of a play explores the possibilities that open up in the lives of an array of women as they come into contact with a certain strand of pearls. While the pearls are stolen, bought, bestowed, unstrung, and nearly lost, their dazzling journey through generations spans thirty-five years. The lives of mothers and daughters, sisters and friends, even husbands and wives are touched in a poignant, deeply affecting story of love and loss.

        The play is pretty bizarre, but it's an interesting take on relationships, family, and, probably, one's 'inner child,' to go back to the early to mid 90s. It would be easy for it to fall flat, but pretty excellent performances from Erin and Sheana make it worth seeing. They move fluidly from their adult characters to their childlike alter-egos, and, in Sheana's case, from Orphan to Henri with success. The Orphan-Henri sandwich debacle is easily the most attention grabbing scene, and it showcases Sheana's ability and comedy supremely well. Erin has a gift for effortless comedic timing, and her Cecil is delightfully nerdy but self-sufficient. Go and see! Collapse

    • ArtsMemphis logo

      Known around the world for its blues and rock and roll, Memphis has a recognizable special vibe. ArtsMemphis exists to nurture this unique character and to magnify the city’s creative voice. We are a 45-year-old arts funding organization (the sixth largest in the United States), which provides annual operating and project support to 23 arts groups and administers some 150 additional grants on a year to year basis. The ArtsMemphis tagline is “your support matters” and indeed it does. As major fundraisers, grant-makers and arts promoters in the city, ArtsMemphis contributed more than $4 million to the Memphis arts community in 2007, and it is a fact that 95 cents of every dollar raised in our annual campaign is directed to our funded organizations. ArtsMemphis builds partnerships among artists, arts groups, donors, educators and culture lovers throughout the city and region. Recognizing that a lively arts scene has a major economic impact and is essential to the quality of life in Memphis, ArtsMemphis is encouraging the entire community to interact with the arts like never before. The current enhanced website with its expanded calendar of events has been introduced with that goal in mind.
