Trinity Street Players is excited to announce the Austin premiere of The Sunset Limited by American Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist and playwright Cormac McCarthy (whose novels All the Pretty Horses, No Country for Old Men, & The Road have all been adapted recently on film).

The Sunset Limited features two nameless men, referred to by their respective skin color. Prior to the play’s beginning, “Black” saves “White” from jumping in front of a passenger train. All action takes place in Black’s apartment, where the two men debate the significance of suffering, the existence of God, and White’s insistent desire to commit suicide.

Writer Cormac McCarthy subtitled his play The Sunset Limited, 'a novel in dramatic form', and that immediately calls into question exactly what is going on here. Basically it is two guys talking for a couple of hours. They also have coffee and eat. White (J. Barrett Cooper) is a professor whose suicide attempt was thwarted earlier by Black (Clyde Tyrone Harper). Now they are in Black's apartment engaged in conversation about theology, morality, and the nature of human existence.
