Jim Garrard's
PEGGY'S SONG
​JAN 23 - FEB 9 BABY GRAND

Picture
"It’s really, really excellent.  Funny, alarming, familiar, unsettling, poignant and brilliantly and believably performed."
-Nohoartsdistrict


 When Peggy’s devoted husband dies in a plane crash and he isn’t where he is supposed to be, or who he is supposed to be with, this causes her to rethink her entire 30 year marriage. She thought they were happy, were they?

​Lisa Howard and Conrad Dunn are coming to Kingston from Los Angeles to present Jim Garrard’s gripping mystery. They presented it there to critical acclaim, and so are eager to revisit the script under Jacob James’ redirection and having Jim Garrard present to rework the script breathing new life into his very popular play.
