Overview
The Velocity of Autumn
AN EXPLOSIVE COMEDY
By Eric Coble
Directed by Giovanna Sardelli
Regional Premiere
An octogenarian artist has barricaded herself in her Brooklyn brownstone, booby-trapped with enough homemade bombs to take out the neighborhood. In a wry, spirited quest to “not go gentle” into a retirement home, Alexandra battles both the fears of her family and the ravages of time, negotiating the terms of her future with a long-estranged son with battles of his own.
Contains mature language.
“Wickedly funny and wonderfully touching.”
