MAGNETIC NORTH
*NEW YORK PREMIERE PRODUCTION*

May 6th - 16th, 2010
written by William Donnelly
directed by Jeremy Dobrish
co-produced by Greg Schaffert

James reconnects with Mara, an old girlfriend, during a period of crisis in his marriage to Leigh. Their casual meeting brings half-forgotten memories and questionable desires suddenly to the surface. After James tells a co-worker of the meeting, the casual get-together slowly begins to erode everything James and Mara believed to be true. A charged tale of intimacy, temptation and the shadowy border between flirtation and betrayal. Winner of the 2006 Clauder Competition for Best New Play.

"Does you heart know the way?"

THE CRITICS

"Fresh and compelling...
skillfully oblique
[with]
extraordinary suspense."

TheaterMania.com


"There are many incredibly surprising moments in this piece that fly in the face of everything that one would expect and in doing this, Donnelly creates a tightrope for the audience to walk on throughout."
