Tickets available for comedic play
LONG BEACH EXCURSION
The GRF Recreation Department will kick off spring with a bus excursion to the west coast premiere of “Under the Skin” by Michael Hollinger on the afternoon of Sunday, April 30.
This comedy explores the estranged relationship between father and daughter Lou and Raina, who both highlight the complexity of familial expectations after Lou suddenly ask Raina for a kidney donation.
His desperate request needs an immediate answer but conflicts with Raina’s feelings of Lou’s shortcomings as a father. Critics like the DC Theater Arts describe Lou as a likable character the audience can sympathize with. Time leaps backward, forward, and sideways, secrets get aired, and truths revealed in this lively, unpredictable comedy that asks what we owe our parents and our children.
The show is a thought-provoking and entertaining production Leisure World residents will visit during the plays opening week at the Beverly O’Neill Theater in Long Beach.
