Kitty and Lina at Manhattan TheatreSource
Kitty and Lina, by Manuel Igrejas, at Manhattan Theatre Source from 3 - 26 Apr 2008.
Kitty and Lina: Kitty came to New York fueled by fantasies of a Manhattan created by Woody Allen. Her day job pays the rent but her evenings are reserved for The Inwood Merry Players, of which she is a charter member. She's still finding her way in the big, grimy playground and sometimes, being a pretty girl isn't all it's cracked up to be.
Lina is on the other end of the ride. An immigrant from Portugal, she escaped her arranged marriage and through pluck, luck and a little on the side, had a career in publishing. Now retired, she still loves New York but finds there are new challenges for women of a certain age.
Directed by Lory Henning, Kitty and Lina features Jennifer Boutell as Kitty and Marilyn Bernard as Lina.
