Washington University South Campus Theatre
6501 Clayton RoadClayton Community Theatre presents Ordinary People, by Nancy Gilsenan adapter from a novel by Judith Guest, directed by Jessica Johns Kelly.
Audiences may be familiar with the novel produced later as a four-time Oscar-winning movie in 1980 by actor-director Robert Redford. The novel and screenplay were adapted to a stage production by playwright Nancy Gilsenan.
Conrad Jarrett had an older brother named Buck, and now Buck is gone. What's left of young Conrad's family, with his successful, well-intentioned father and his beautiful, organized and remote mother, is in terrible jeopardy, as is Conrad himself. They are all "ordinary people" and each is fighting a hard battle. This play goes to the essence of a young man, his friends, and family, their relationships and survival.
