As the saying goes, "if only these walls could talk," and in Catherine Butterfield's imaginative new play they do! Set in a Manhattan brownstone, this play spans three contrasting eras and plays host to three very different sets of occupants. There's the pampered rich young couple of the 1930s, eager for adventure in Paris. There are the starry-eyed aspiring actresses of the 1970s and the chillingly self-absorbed "power couple" of the new millennium. They all have dreams, but as events unfold they must learn to ride the shifting waves of fortune. These walls have stories - funny, tragic and mysteriously linked. Brownstone is from the author of The Playhouse's hit comedy The Sleeper. This play has been commissioned by The Laguna Playhouse.
