Synopsis: | It is a challenge to create good theater featuring senior performers, especially in the short play format. In the vein of Robert Anderson's I'm Herbert (featured in You Know I Can't Hear You When the Water's Running),Night Song is a heart-wrenching story of an older stroke victim (Jim Epstein) taking care of his long-time dementia-afflicted wife (Rusty Clauss) and the problems they face. The story is powerful, but oft-times the scene and dialogue becomes repetitive. This piece has the potential to become an excellent short work for older actors. Rusty Clauss gave an exceptional performance as the mentally decaying wife. | |||||
