A Delicate Ship
by Anna Ziegler
Directed by Margot Bordelon

August 18th - September 12th, 2015
at the Peter Jay Sharp Theater
416 W. 42nd Street

"But Ms. Ziegler’s quietly lyrical language has a luminous beauty, and her talent for creating characters whose complicated depths are just visible on their surfaces is still more remarkable. She has found a sympathetic director in Margot Bordelon, who gives the play’s fluid structure a strong grounding in reality that never interferes with its elliptical aura. And it’s impossible to imagine a cast better able to infuse Ms. Ziegler’s story of love, pain and loss with more natural poetry, or more piercing honesty."
— THE NEW YORK TIMES
