Quartet
21 May @ 7:30 pm – 23 May @ 10:00 pm
Quartet by Ronald Harwood, performed by Castle Players Theatre Company
A Heartwarming Tale of Second Chances
Cecily, Reggie, and Wilfred are living out their days in a beautiful English country house for retired musicians, preparing for the annual Verdi birthday gala. Their quiet routine is shattered by the arrival of Jean—a star of the past and a diva of the present, who also happens to be Reggie’s ex-wife. As they rehearse their famous quartet, past wounds resurface and personalities clash. Quartet is a touching and hilarious look at aging with dignity, navigating old flames, and finding harmony in later life.
