Ages of the Moon

by Sam Shepard
Directed by Katherine Owens

October 15th – November 12th, with $10 preview performances Oct. 12th, 13th and 14th

Southwest Regional Premiere.

As the moon edges into darkness, a cry for help goes out from a remote fishing shack. Byron takes a cross-country bus to come to the aide of his friend, Ames, whose wife has thrown him out. In their bourbon-soaked reunion, they grapple over the women they've lost and the ones who remain. Pulitzer Prize winning author, Sam Shepard's stunning new play rides the line between laughter and violence, as buried feelings begin to erupt in the shadow of a shotgun and an approaching lunar eclipse.
