Sylvia Discussion

Running from January 12 through January 27 at the Pumphouse Theatre Kyle sits down with Stuart Bentley (performer of Greg) and Ted Lach (director) to discuss the hardship of putting on a show like Sylvia and trying to bring Scorpio back to life.

Greg is a man of middle age, a restless empty-nester tired of his job in finance and looking for meaning in his life. Sylvia is an exuberant lab/poodle mix, astray and looking for a new home. When they meet at the park it is love at first sight… But Greg’s wife Kate is looking forward to some independence now that the couple no longer has children to care for, and is less than thrilled by the clever and coquettish canine who jumps, slobbers, sits on her couch, and takes Greg’s attention away from his marriage. A touching and hilarious love story!
