SUMMARY:Six Degrees of Separation - Hyde Park Community Players
DESCRIPTION:Six Degrees of Separation – Hyde Park Community Players \nFriday\, November 14\, 7:30 pm\nSaturday\, November 15\, 7:30 pm\nSunday\, November 16\, 2:00 pm\nFriday\, November 21\, 7:30 pm\nSaturday\, November 22\, 7:30 pm\nSunday\, November 23\, 2:00 pm \nUniversity Church\n5655 S. University Ave. \nJoin us for our next mainstage production\, Six Degrees of Separation\, written by John Guare and directed by Dorothy Parsons. Inspired by a true story\, the play follows the trail of a young Black man\, Paul\, who insinuates himself into the lives of a wealthy New York couple\, Ouisa and Flan Kittredge\, claiming he knows their children at college. Captivated by Paul’s intelligence and his fascinating conversation\, the Kittredges invite him to stay overnight. After an incident changes their opinion of him\, Ouisa and Flan piece together the connections that gave Paul access to their lives. Meanwhile\, Paul’s cons unexpectedly lead him into darker territory\, and his lies begin to catch up with him. As the final events of the play unfold\, Ouisa suddenly finds herself caring for Paul\, feeling that he gave them far more than he took and that her once idyllic life was not what it seemed to be. \nThe play explores the existential premise that everyone in the world is connected to everyone else in the world by a chain of no more than six acquaintances\, thus\, “six degrees of separation.” \n\nGet Your Advance Tickets Here!\nJoin us for Six Degrees of Separation\, November 14-16 and 21-23. Advance tickets are $15\, and tickets at the door are $20 general admission\, $18 for students and seniors. All performances are at University Church\, 5655 S. University Ave.\n(Please note: Advance ticket sales close 24 hours before each show. After that point\, tickets are available only at the door and not at the advance ticket price.)
