Play Title:Still Life with Parrot & Monkey
Runtime:91-120 minutes
Synopsis:Celia, romantic but emotionally detached, lives with her fiancé Len, who is doing research on consciousness theory; he’s centered, focused, and loves Celia, but she fears she’s no match for him. And when she takes stock of her life, she comes up short. Thinking she has no purpose, she sets off to find answers—and instead encounters Vic, a quirky downtown painter, and Gloria, an offbeat housewife from the Valley who (inconveniently) can’t seem to stop channeling Frida Kahlo. Gloria and her mother don’t worry about such things—they just live. They go bowling. As the situation grows more complicated, Celia clings to one desperate goal: to do whatever it takes to find inner peace. (Which isn’t easy--especially when the people around her spontaneously combust and frequent a mysterious hall of mirrors, the Blue Moon.)

Nontraditional and comedic, STILL LIFE is a blend of realism and illusion, a landscape reflecting the chaos we experience as we maneuver through what is supposed to be normal urban life.
