THE OTHER ISLAND - A Rehearsed Reading

TKD Productions Present

THE OTHER ISLAND by Tim Anfilogoff

Directed by Matthew Gould

 

Provincial Italy, 1985: Marco Farina is leaving home for medical school.  Eager to keep the truth of his sexuality from his parents, he persuades Luciana to to join a farewell family lunch.

 

But Marco’s father, Lorenzo, a political prisoner under Mussolini, and his long-suffering wife, Maria, have secrets too.  As family tensions erupt, Luciana stumbles on a long buried lie, and the cozy world of the Farinas begins to unravel.

 

A funny and moving play in two acts about earthquakes, family love and zabaglione.
