"Homelife" is a canny, self-contained chamber play about marriage, a consideration, both sober and funny, of the loneliness within a shared life. Ann and Peter engage in an intense dialogue and it soon becomes clear that genuine communication doesn’t come easily to this married couple. In "The Zoo Story" an ultimately violent encounter between Peter and Jerry, an eccentric passerby takes place. The clash of social classes, values and lifestyles is depicted vividly but with intriguing ambiguity. Director: Charles C.
