WHAT IS IT ABOUT?

Sometimes, divorce is the only way to communicate after 60 years of marriage.

The Seeing Place Theater, known for its intensely intimate ensemble work, embarks on a World Premiere of rare proportions - an elderly love story of immigrants finding the true meaning of the American Dream.

Married life hasn't been the best for the Turners since they left Scotland in 1951. On the eve of their 60th anniversary, Addie deserts their Brooklyn home while William is running errands. After their wayward son moves her into the living room of their alcoholic daughter's apartment, she drains the joint bank account, hires the best lawyer she can find, and pays him to be her shrink. She even serves divorce papers on Thanksgiving...for effect. The kids do their best to negotiate hunger strikes, restraining orders, and the rapidly diminishing family fortune - while William does everything he can to sabotage the court proceedings and save his marriage. Scotch Kiss is a black-comedic romance about a family learning, for the first time, how to appreciate one another.

Scotch Kiss was inspired by true events and developed through improvisation by The Seeing Place Ensemble.

The Sublime Cast of Scotch Kiss
I had the opportunity to see Scotch Kiss twice, the new original play from The Seeing Place Theater Company. The cast of this distinctively fresh play is amazing; especially Kathleen Brower: Judge/ Bree who steals the second act; her performance is incredible; A pleasure to watch; she holds this chaotic story together with a certain type of elegance and grace that makes you can?t take your eyes off of her. Bree?s kindness and need to keep this family together is superb; Ms. Brower is simply breath taking! Rounding out the solid cast are the amazing Michael Stephen Clay William: Turner and Ned Baker Lynch: Dan Turner who deliver heart-breaking lines that with the correct mixture of humor and sadness that emphasize that life is not always fair and that above all else relationships are complicated. The other cast members Mary Anisi: Addie Turner & Cora Svajone: Debbie Friedlander are amazing talents. I cannot wait for this theater company next production!
