Sea Marks
by Gardner McKay, Directed by John Romeo
February 14-16, 2020
Colm, a fisherman living on a remote Irish island, has fallen in love with a woman he's glimpsed only once. Unschooled in letter writing, he tries his utmost to court her by mail and finally succeeds in arranging a rendezvous. Timothea, beguiled by his gift of gab, persuades him to come be with her in Liverpool where she toils away at a publisher’s office. Can these mismatched, lonely spirits build a future based upon hope, desire and poetic words — or is the call of home too great? This lyrical, touching play won the Los Angeles Drama Critics' Circle and the Canadian National Regional Theatre Awards.
