The Oil Thief

This new work by New Rep favorite, Joyce Van Dyke, taps a well of emotion and confusion in Amy, a disillusioned geologist who is seeking to unearth some new excitement in her life and distance herself from her stagnant career. When her family-friend and industry compatriot, Aleksi, confesses his love for her, Amy wonders if an affair is what she needs. The two, along with Rex, Amy’s long-term lover, explore the fissures and ridges in their relationship, hoping to exhume some happiness and meaning from the remnants.
