Clark College presents “The Shadow Box”

November 19, 2022 @ 7:30 pm - 10:00 pm

$12 – $15

Clark College presents “The Shadow Box,” with performances at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 10, 11, 12, 18 and 19 at the Decker Theatre, located on the Clark College campus at 1933 Fort Vancouver Way, Vancouver. General admission is $15 or $12 for seniors. Clark College students, faculty and staff are free. The play won a Tony Award for Best Play and a Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 1977.

Joe, Brian and Felicity come from different walks of life, different parts of the country, and are in different stages of accepting the things they have in common: they are all dying of cancer, and they are all living out their final days in hospice cottages on the grounds of a large California hospital. They are observed, studied and counseled by an invisible Interviewer as they talk candidly about their emotional and physical struggles. Each faces a challenge: Joe’s wife Maggie, in denial about her husband’s impending death, refuses to go inside his cottage; artistic Brian, busy trying to write and paint enough for twelve lifetimes, must mediate between his ex-wife Beverly and his boyfriend Mark; and Felicity, confused and in pain, refuses to die until she gets a visit from her daughter, Claire, who has been dead for years.
