The Bridge

Description

Music & Lyrics by The Kilbanes

Book by Patricia Cotter

Lucie Stern Theatre, Palo Alto

It’s New York in 1867, and newlyweds Emily and Washington Roebling are not a typical couple. Washington, the Chief Engineer building the Brooklyn Bridge, isn’t bothered by Emily’s disinterest in domestic matters – in fact, he celebrates her intellect and ambition. Then tragedy strikes; Washington is badly injured at the worksite and then permanently bed-bound with a mysterious neurological condition. To fend off corrupt politicians who are threatening to fire him and compromise the bridge, Emily begins running his project for him – and succeeds. However, it turns out that wishing for an unconventional marriage is quite different than actually getting one: neither of them is sure their relationship will survive it.

Epic and intimate, brimming with joy, pain and longing, and set in a moment when America was reimagining itself, The Bridge is a love story about how impossible – and how vital – it is to build new things together.
