Description

Persistence in Memory was Mark-Brian Sonna’s first play and when it premiered, this very unusual comedy caused quite the sensation. It went on to be one of the most successful theatre productions at the groundbreaking Theatre Garage. This biographical play tells the life story of a man remembering various scenes of his atypical life, while at the same time coping with a cleaning woman from hell. The mix of reality and the imaginary is both hysterically funny and terrifying. What makes this play even more unusual is that it evolves as the playwright ages. It was seen as avant-garde theatre when it premiered, and it remains controversial to this day. Because of the explicit nature of the material, we do not advise minors attend this play.
