Jewish Repertory Theatre Presents TALLEY'S FOLLY, By Lanford Wilson
by A.A. Cristi
- Nov 14, 2018
Talley's Folly opens in a 1944 deserted Victorian boathouse on the Talley place in Lebanon, Missouri, where Matt Friedman, an accountant from St. Louis, has arrived to plead his love to Sally Talley, the susceptible but uncertain daughter of the family. Bookish, erudite, totally honest, and delightfully funny, Matt refuses to accept Sally's rebuffs and her fears that her family would never approve of their marriage. Charming and indomitable, he gradually overcomes her defenses, telling his innermost secrets to his loved one and, in return, learning hers as well. Gradually it is clear that they are two kindred spirits who have truly found each other-two 'lame ducks' who, in their union, will find a wholeness rare in human relationships.
