2. THE LONG GOODBYE

The Long Goodbye, a one woman play written, produced and performed by actor Mattilynn Rochester Kravitz, is a universal hero's journey of love, forgiveness, and understanding all tied up with the bow of Alzheimers. The multi-character show, presented by Whitefire Theatre in Los Angeles, explores the irreversible, progressive brain disorder that slowly destroys memory and skills, through a tumultuous mother and daughter relationship. The Long Goodbye opens on Friday, January 31 at 8pm, PT. at the Whitfire Theatre located at 13500 Ventura Blvd., Sherman Oaks, CA. A touching, surprisingly funny look at the resilience of the human spirit and a personal journey to freedom, the play offers a moving view of the world from childhood to adulthood. The story focused on a mother who cant remember and a daughter who cant forget, is an emotional trajectory through a fractured relationship and how the devastating disease of Alzheimers engineers an unforeseen healing. Lauded for her masterful and uncanny ability to slip in and out of identities, ages and gender, Ms. Rochester-Kravitz explores a dark subject matter with characters that are both entertaining and heartrending. Using song, dance and a range of extraordinary personalities, she unveils the life of an ordinary family and tells a universal tale of the pains and joys of childhood, the struggle for identity and reconciliation with the sins of the past.The Long Goodbye, is an official selection of the Santa Monica Binge Fringe Festival and the official selection of the 2020 SOLOFEST at the Whitefire Theatre in Sherman Oaks, CA. Tickets to the one night only performance start at $20.00 and are on sale now to the general public.
