COME BACK, LITTLE SHEBA

BY WILLIAM INGE

You must see award-winning playwright William Inge’s showcase of lust, longing, and loneliness before it vanishes into thin air!

There is something in the smokey spring air of the 1950 mid-western town where we find the idle hands of Lola, rumbling about at the edges of a love (or lust) that is vanishing into thin air.

Doc tries his best to be a good husband, celebrating nearly a year on the wagon with seemingly few incidents and yet their young border Marie and her romantic study sessions seem to be wrenching loose spokes at a rapid pace.

With multiple suitors knocking at the door, Lola’s prying eyes at the curtains, and the creeping shadow of what once was spilling through, the cork may not be able to resist a pop.

In this explosive, deeply felt play by Pulitzer Prize and Academy Award winning playwright William Inge, legendary local director George Toles has once again brought forth unmissable theatre to a Winnipeg stage.
