Joint Productions presents: Edward Albee’s The Goat or, Who is Sylvia?
May 13, 2015 @ 8:00 pm - May 15, 2015 @ 9:30 pm
The Goat or, Who is Sylvia? tells the story of a married, middle-aged architect, Martin, his wife Stevie, and their son Billy, whose lives crumble when Martin falls in love with a goat. The play focuses on the limits of an ostensibly liberal society, and features many language games and grammatical arguments in the middle of catastrophes and existential disputes between the characters. Through showing this family in crisis, Albee challenges audience members to question their own morality in the face of other social taboos including infidelity, pedophilia, incest and, of course, bestiality. Joint Productions first presented The Goat in 2012 at The Barbara Barrett Theatre and has received critical acclaim for their inaugural production. Finally, the Joint Productions team will answer the call to remount The Goat for an exclusive two day run at the LSPU Hall. This new show will feature a full Joint Productions cast and an all new set design. If you missed it in 2012, now is your chance to get in on all the excitement, and if you saw our first show, you won’t want to miss this one time only do-over.
