Absurdist mystery meets metaphysical musical in this bizarre, dark comedy from the author of Six Degrees of Separation and The House of Blue Leaves. Betty Yearn and her teenage son come from small-town Maine to seedy 1970s Greenwich Village to rescue her sister, Rosalie, from her life as a part-time porn star. When Rosalie is killed in a freak accident, Betty slowly takes over her persona, only to find herself catapulted by a series of random circumstances culminating in her son’s murder — with her as the prime suspect. John Guare’s Landscape of the Body is a wild ride and poignant meditation on loss, the fragility of life, and the futile determination to make sense out of a senseless world.
The Student & Senior price is only applicable for Thursday & Sunday performances.
