Trio
by Filigree Theatre
Feb. 04 (2018)
Every day, Tim bares his chest and Leslie kills him. Leslie’s mom is in the hospital, so she seeks distraction in her dad’s garage, devising a monster play for kids. Tim plays the monster as she wields a wooden sword, while a Trio of silent clowns create a magical world from found objects around them. When Fletcher, Tim’s old college love appears, a three-way romantic triangle takes shape through swords and masks and monsters. In a dreamlike space where everybody wears a mask, Tim and Leslie eventually learn the real world never really goes away.
