“You Know Why You’re Here”
This was a collaboration of the regular Rough & Tumble Theatre crew (Dan
Milstein Directing, Fred Harrington’s on-stage music) with wordsmith Bill
Donnelly. It wed their laconic, minimalist style to the memories of a guy
(Chris Cook) who watched a girl (Kristin Baker) from high school, through three
different affairs, into marriage – but not to him. George Saulnier
III played the three other men, while Tori Low and
Irene Daly were high-school friends and wedding-guests. With little but a few
changes of costume and a couple of props, whispy and
brief, this little gem could be the plot for a novel by F. Scott Fitzgerald –a theatrical
poem.
