As though seen through the lens of a combination time machine and bawdy, old-time kinescope, Michael John LaChuisa’s Hello Again criss-crosses beds and jumps from decade to decade, intimately examining the painful secrets that drive characters into each others’ arms and towards the bruising effects of reckless passion. Kevin Bellie directs.
Special Thursday performances at 8p.m. on July 10th and July 17th only. No performances on July 3rd or July 4th.
