Mask & Bauble and Nomadic Theatre join forces in this exciting co-production. Max harshly accuses his wife, Charlotte, of infidelity. Yet, after she slams the door, she speaks lovingly with a man named Henry in an eerily similar setting. Moments later, this playwright, Henry exchanges pleasantries with the very same Max from the previous scene. What is going on here? In The Real Thing, Tom Stoppard constantly challenges his audience to ask, 'what is real?' Should we focus on art itself or on what that art does to us? Ludwig van Beethoven or Lady Gaga? Can we view things like love, friendship, or music in an objective lens, or should we simply trust the goosebumps that a certain experience gives us? Stoppard dares the audience to engage a new theatrical reality, one that passes in and out of a play-within-the-play, a movie set, and Henry's personal life. |
