WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Edge Theater Company presents the Off-Broadway premiere of Craig Wright's new play Orange Flower Water.
Married couples David & Cathy Larson and Brad & Beth Youngquist live with their children in the relatively peaceful town of Pine City, Minnesota. David and Beth, after years of maintaining a platonic friendship, begin an adulterous affair with disastrous consequences. Through a series of scenes which all take place on or around a single bed, we see the painfully intense unraveling of both marriages and, eventually, the construction of a very fragile but authentic new beginning for everyone concerned.
Carolyn Cantor directs a cast that includes Arija Bareikis, Pamela J. Gray, Jason Butler Harner, and Paul Sparks (two-time Drama Desk nominee).

"There are no moments of goodness that don't come with responsibilities," says a character in Craig Wright's Orange Flower Water, currently receiving a stunning New York premiere courtesy of the Edge Theater Company. The line is spoken by a woman who's about to embark upon an adulterous affair; she addresses it to the man she loves but to whom she is not married. Both of them have children with their respective spouses, and they worry about God and the decay of societal values; however, that's not going to stop them from attempting to achieve happiness together.
Wright, who is one of the lead writers on HBO's Six Feet Under, has crafted four sharply drawn characters with flaws and human fai[...]
