Rough Crossing
Rough Crossing
by Tom Stoppard; from the original play by Ferenc Molnar
RUN TIME: approximately 2.5 hours, including one 15-minute intermission.
A hilarious farce where two playwrights, one jealous composer, and most of the cast of a Broadway-bound show attempt to simultaneously finish writing and rehearse the play while crossing the Atlantic on an ocean liner.
“Light and lively... Stoppard's puns and non sequiturs ricochet around the stage like ping-pong balls at summer camp.” - The New York Times
