WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Tony Award and Emmy Award-winner and Academy Award-nominee Jane Alexander stars with Robert Cuccioli (GSP's The Seafarer) and Gareth Saxe (Broadway's The Homecoming) in this beautiful, lyrical new play about Frieda Weekley, the often-scandalous widow of D.H. Lawrence and inspiration for his most controversial works including Lady Chatterly's Lover and Women in Love.
Tony Award-nominee and Emmy Award-winner Edwin Sherin, long-time producer of television's Law & Order and director of Broadway's landmark Tony Award and Pulitzer Prize-winning production of The Great White Hope (starring Miss Alexander), directs this new play by Thom Thomas.
