TURQUOISE

A New Play by

DEB MARGOLIN

Directed by

AIMÉE HAYES

There is an old married couple, struggling with physical and mental deterioration, trying to remember the word for the color turquoise. There are two teenage boys, working out how to bear the weight of a recent suicide attempt, and finding out what they mean to each other. There is a pianist with a brain injury, who can only remember the last seven seconds, and his day nurse. Slowly, these six lives—with their unifying themes of memory, love, and loss—overlap more and more, in a simultaneous symphony of love and suffering. Turquoise reminds us that everything is always happening all at once.
