A bit of seaside fantasy serves as the platform for Albee’s deep dive into Evolution, Aging, Prejudice and, of course, Marriage. Nicholas Ballas’ direction of SEASCAPE will feature company regulars Leslie Harrell Dillen, Robert Nott, and Hania Stocker, and it will mark Santa Fean Emily Rankin’s debut with NMAL. SEASCAPE is the third production of NMAL’s 2023 season, opening on September 6 and running through Sunday, September 24. Evening performances begin at 7:30 p.m.; Sunday performances begin at 2 p.m. There is a talkback session after the show on Sunday, September 17. All performances will be held at NMAL’s permanent home, the Lab Theater, located at 1213 Parkway Drive in Santa Fe – one block from Meow Wolf.
The New Yorker proclaims, “Of all of Mr. Albee’s plays, SEASCAPE is the most exquisitely written.” Like many of Albee's plays, it focuses on interpersonal relationships and in this case between two couples, one human, one amphibian. The overriding theme, according to Mr. Ballas, is how the power of love becomes an engine of transformation and ultimately evolution. SEASCAPE has elements of comedy, fantasy, satire and absurdism. The emotional and intellectual reverberations of this bizarre and compelling play will linger in the heart and the mind long after the curtain falls. And we have Albee’s own wry observation: “SEASCAPE wonders whether we are an evolving species or perhaps a devolving one.” You can decide for yourself after seeing NMAL’s production!

Review: SEASCAPE at NM Actors Lab
September 11, 2023, Albee’s plays seem to be perfectly normal, until they aren’t, and here’s the twist in Seascape. Nancy and Charlie are so wrapped up in their “you always…..you never” conversation that they don’t realize they are no longer alone on the beach. Without giving away too much of the plot, they are joined by another couple that is decidedly different from them in every way. Leslie (Hania Stocker) and Sarah (Emily Rankin) have ventured to this beach for the first time and are fascinated by Nancy and Charlie. They are naïve to the ways of the world and are eager to learn. Both Nancy and Charlie have to figure out the best way to communicate and explain things to this couple, a task that is a challenge for both of them, given their years of waiting to talk instead of listening to each other. It’s also farcical to see how readily this seemingly normal couple stuck in a rut accept the newcomers on the beach.
