Show Description:
Tony and two-time Golden Globe winner
Linda Lavin
(Collected Stories, The Tale of the Allergist’s Wife) returns to MTC in
Our Mother’s Brief Affair
, a new play making its New York premiere. From the team behind The Assembled Parties – Tony-winning writer
Richard Greenberg
(Three Days of Rain, Take Me Out) and award-winning MTC Artistic Director
Lynne Meadow
(The Commons of Pensacola, Wit) – this innovative work challenges us to look at who our parents are when they’re not being our parents.
On the verge of death for the umpteenth time, Anna (Lavin) makes a shocking confession to her grown children: an affair from her past that just might have resonance beyond the family. But how much of what she says is true? While her children try to separate fact from fiction, Anna fights for a legacy she can be proud of. With razor-sharp wit and extraordinary insight, Our Mother’s Brief Affair considers the sweeping, surprising impact of indiscretions both large and small.

REVIEWS
If the playwright Richard Greenberg didn’t write the role for Linda Lavin, he might as well have, so perfectly does it suit and flatter her. It may in fact suit and flatter her too well; sometimes one would like to see Lavin clawing her way out of a role instead of slipping so smoothly into it. Here, she wears Anna as fetchingly as Anna wears the perfectly cut Burberry trench coat she imbues with talismanic powers of mysterious romance.
------New York Magazine
[Greg] Keller, an exasperated but formidable foil to his mother, narrates most of the story. [Kate] Arrington (“The Qualms”) is believable as the adult daughter who long ago understood she was not mom’s favorite and John Procaccino (Signature’s chilling “Incident at Vichy”) is very good, doing double-duty as both the secretive lover wooing Anna in the park, and Anna’s crotchety husband.
