Twilight Repertory Theatre closes its 2008-09 season with an evening of one-act plays by Portland playwrights on the theme of parents and children. The six plays are held together by a common theme, the relationships within families, but vary in tone from tragic to farcical and points in between. The playwrights include TRT members JJ Hawkins, director of last year’s delightful comedy She Stoops To Conquer, Artistic Director John Duncan, and David Gallic, author of TRT’s comedy production Off Book and the award-winning Meatloaf in the Moonlight. They are joined by Brian Koch, playwright, director and producer of two successful local productions based on 50’s horror films; Karin Magaldi, professor of theatre arts and playwriting at Portland State University; and Gretchen Icenogle, professor of theatre arts at Reed College and Drammy award-winning playwright. Join them in June for a rollercoaster examination of that most perplexing human relationship.
Tough Love

Bottle Youth

Two Suits

Consider the Ant
