A modern fairy-tale of a young couple who fall frantically in love—he,
a hopeless optimist; she, more prone to darkness and pessimism. As they
struggle to come to terms with their relationship, something supernatural
tests its permanence.
Studio 115
at the University of Utah Department of Theatre opens its season with the
psychological fantasy Prelude to a
Kiss. Performances are in Studio 115 in the Performing Arts Building,
at 7:30 pm Thursday through Saturday, October 12-15, with a matinee Friday
October 14 at 4:30 pm and a matinee Sunday October 15 at 2:00 pm. ASL
interpreters will be available at the performance on Thursday, October 12.
The story of Rita and
Peter, a charming young couple who fall quickly, madly in love, takes a
surprising twist on their wedding day.
As the couple settles into their honeymoon, Peter becomes
suspicious of Rita’s behavior. His suspicions become obsessive as he
convinces himself that Rita is not the same person he married. A guest
from the wedding may have the answers that Peter seeks. Can the couple be
reconciled, or is the relationship doomed?
Come
experience this dark fairy tale that asks, “How well can we really know
another person?”
