Story for The Cataract
With the mighty Mississippi serving as a powerful backdrop, Lisa D’Amour’s stark and poetic play fuses the natural elements of wind, water, wood and stone to the interiors of its four characters. At the dawn of the new age, upstanding Midwesterners Cyrus and Lottie take in a transient Southern couple, Dan and Dinah. Dreams converge with sexual tension, suppressed emotions with desire, flooding the carefully laid landscape Cyrus and Lottie have designed.
