SYLVIA has opened at the English Theatre Frankfurt - directed by Bethany Pitts and starring Mercedes Bahleda.
Manhattan’s Upper West Side. Middle-aged Greg is a lonely empty-nester who is dissatisfied with his job and increasingly distant from his career-oriented wife, Kate (Mercedes Bahleda).
One day he brings home a dog from the park bearing only the name “Sylvia” on her name tag.
She promises to fill Greg’s life with all the things he feels it is missing: fun, energy, and above all, adoration. But when Greg becomes increasingly obsessed with their relationship, he must deal with the unexpected consequences that her presence in his home has on his longstanding marriage.
Sylvia is a smart, silly, sophisticated, and occasionally salty comedy about relationships, nature, and growing older.
Playing until 26th May. For more information, or to book tickets - click here.
