The Language Archive
George is a
brilliant linguist, consumed with preserving and documenting dying
languages. But at home, he cannot find the words that will preserve his
disintegrating marriage. His archival assistant is mute with adoration
for him; and his newest subjects, an elderly couple who are the last
speakers of an obscure language, refuse to utter a word to one another.
A magically inventive comedy, The Language Archive asks whether love is
a universal language or, like Esperanto, just a well-intentioned dream.
Pay-What-You-Can: February 16 and 17. PWYC tickets on sale in
person at the RHT Silver Spring box office 1 hour before curtain.
Cash/exact change only. Limit of 2 tickets per person. Subject to
availability.

Hapgood
A
breathtaking, funny and brain teasing espionage thriller set in the Cold
War of secret research could be stolen. Stoppard wrote: "If there's a
central idea in the play, it is the proposition that in each of the
characters is the working majority of a dual personality, part of which
is always there in a submerged state."
