Synopsis: | A play based on the life of Diana Vreeland, who stood at the center of American style for five decades. As editor of Harper's Bazaar and Vogue magazines, and as a member of the International Cafe Society, she chronicled the extraordinary people and events of her time. FULL GALLOP is a portrait of this remarkable woman at a turning point in her life. Vreeland has just returned home to New York after four months in Europe-a trip she took after being fired from Vogue magazine. She throws an impromptu dinner party in the hope that a wealthy friend who is invited will bankroll her in starting a magazine of her own. Other friends, however, attempt to persuade her to take a job at the famed Metropolitan Museum of Art. In her distinctive style, once she decides in which direction her life will move, she goes at it "full gallop." | |||||

Synopsis: | A hilarious evening of short plays about the foibles of stage actors and those who love them. Two women of a certain age prepare for a theater outing in LOST. (2 women.) In THE PROFESSIONAL, a seasoned actor recalls the two times he's been fired. (1 man.) DEER PLAY recounts the strange tale of a woodland creature's reign of terror in an aging actress' garden. (3 men, 2 women, flexible casting.) An actress finds herself eclipsed by a rival in the confessional TIRADE. (1 woman.) In LAUGHS, we see just how nasty summer-stock rehearsal can get. (2 men, 1 woman.) ROAD WORK presents the whispered conversations of three cast members getting sick of each other during a touring production. (1 man, 2 women.) Finally, we learn what chafes and what soothes the delicate ego of a grande dame IN THE DRESSING ROOM. (7 men, 3 women.) | |||||
