Seanachai Theater Company: That Was Then March 6, 2011

Seanachai Theatre Company presents the Midwest premiere of 'That Was Then' by Gerard Stembridge. The production will take place in the 3rd Floor theatre at the Irish American Heritage Center. Anglo-Irish tensions simmer beneath the surface as Dublinites Noel and May host a dinner party for an English couple in hopes of securing a substantial loan. Five years later, the invitation is reciprocated, but the tables have turned. Set in two time periods simultaneously (pre-and post-Celtic Tiger), 'That Was Then' ingeniously weaves together the events of both desperate evenings in this dark comedy.
