Dear BeBuddy members,
we hope you’re having a good week!
Here are some useful information for you:
1) The Solitary Company presents «Annapurna» by Sharr White at Café Bar Zuhause
Since their debut in 2013 with "Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?", The Solitary Company continues to enthrall their audience with their fascinating stage presence. The group cordially invites you to their next play "Annapurna," with performances on the 16th, 17th and 19th of May at 7pm. Staying true to their origins, The Solitary Company only performs in English in the „living room“-atmosphere of the café & bar Zuhause. Reserve your tickets now under: http://www.thesolitarycompany.de/en_home.html
The play - "Annapurna" by Sharr White :
Ever since they left, Emma desperately tries to keep her ex-husband Ulysses out of her and their son’s lives. Now, after their son discovered a long hidden secret, Emma must reluctantly track Ulysses down. Ulysses, a brilliant but resigned poet who gave up on life long ago, reels from Emma’s surprising return. Ferociously damaged by it, he tries to ascertain why Emma left him; but in order to do so, both must relive the best and worst moments of their lives.
