Two strangers make their way in a shared train compartment from Paris to Frankfurt, one is a famous novelist and the other a great admirer of his. Will she muster the nerve to speak to him? Will he acknowledge his accidental traveling companion? Or, despite their close physical proximity, will they remain in their distant interior worlds? Two intertwined personal stories cleverly composed of overlapping interior monologues, this subtle and endearing play is Yasmina Reza’s follow-up to her international (and local!) smash hit Art. The NY Press called The Unexpected Man “a compelling work, a pungent and perceptive inquiry into the strange links between desire, invention and self-invention.”

The play is directed by Jenny Jackson.

The players are Liz Masters and Charles Whitson.

The play is stage managed by Missy Childs
