The Follow-Up Fellow
The Follow-Up Fellow
Written by Thomas W. Stephens
Directed by Ansley Valentine
With Sarah Brackett, Adam Mohrs
When Tim arrives to verify data for the 1910 US Census, Margaret welcomes him into her kitchen and they discover an immediate rapport. Margaret becomes uneasy with his seeming familiarity with the details of her life. When pressed, Tim discloses the extraordinary circumstances that led to their meeting and reveals the time-and-space ties that forever bind them.
“What an imaginative, beautifully written play! It did what good art should do – immersed me in the piece itself and made me think about my own life (and the people who came before me.)”
“Sensitively directed by Ansley Valentine, with his usual attention to period detail and character development.”
“Extraordinary acting by Sarah Brackett and Adam Mohrs. I felt that I was in the room with you, feeling what you were feeling!”
“Yet another Tom Stephens play marked by warmth, heart, and beautiful writing! ”
“I teared up several times. If this was only possible, I would jump at the chance to meet a past relative or two. I am writing a book of my ancestry and this wonderful play struck a chord in me. Thank you all.”
“
Very cool giving us hints of the big twist before revealing it. How very fun!”
