Collected Stories​

By:

Donald Margulies

October 20 – November 11, 2023

directed by Kevin Taylor

produced by Karen Bronson

Graduate student Lisa Morrison is thrilled to be under the mentorship of her literary idol, Ruth Steiner. Over the years, Lisa becomes Ruth’s personal assistant and gradually her friend. But as Lisa’s career begins to flourish and Ruth’s begins to fade, can their friendship survive ambition, rivalry, and eventual betrayal? Collected Stories by Donald Margulies explores the complicated relationship between two independent women as they struggle to define what, if anything, is off-limits in art.
