The Secret of Mme. Bonnard’s Bath

Gloucester Stage Company presents the world premiere of Israel Horovitz’s The Secret of Mme. Bonnard’s Bath, directed by Mr. Horovitz.

Is it the search for the absolute brush stroke of vibrant color that leads Pierre Bonnard, one of the most enigmatic masters of 20th century art, to suddenly retouch his painting on exhibit in a small Paris museum? Or is it the artist’s urgent rush to distill his memory of a long hidden and tragic love? Israel Horovitz’s newest offering promises mystery, romance, intellect and humor.
