Program News and Review

Betrayal and bigamy, crisis and reconciliation, are just some of the themes probed by the playwright who also wrote Death of a Salesman and All My Sons. Lyman Felt is a dynamic and vigorous man who has it all: a thriving insurance business, fame as a poet, children who adore him—and two women claiming to be his wife. Restrained, conservative Theo and independent, opinionated Leah meet in the hospital where Lyman is recovering from a car wreck, having driven down Mt. Morgan in a blizzard. The women’s shock at Lyman’s bigamy and Lyman’s justification of his actions create a whirlwind of hard truths and painful memories, into which Lyman’s daughter, his best friend, and even the nurse taking care of him, are drawn.
