Luna Stage’s World Premiere of Old Love New Love by Laura Brienza

A mother and daughter navigate the choppy waters of infidelity under very different circumstances: Gloria’s husband Colin has fallen for another Alzheimer’s patient at the facility where he resides. Michelle’s husband Matt has strayed after losing a local election and wrestling with his unfulfilled ambitions. A play about what we can’t remember and what we can forgive, Old Love New Love explores what happens when old love faces new challenges.

Directed by Nancy Robillard

Talkback Schedule: April 10th and 21st
