WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
MTC ends its 2001 season with Alan Ayckborn's new plays House and Garden, running concurrently on Stages 1 and 2, with the cast moving between the two stages. In Garden, Giles and Joanne Mace wrestle with a dissolving marriage while two bumbling caterers wreck havoc, a backyard tent collapses, and French film star Lucille has too much to drink. John Tillinger directs.
