In the late 1800s, young Dr. Givings is obsessed with the marvels of technology and what they can do for his patients. His wife, Catherine, is only a bystander in her husband's world - listening at the door from the next room as he treats his female patients.

Harbor Stage
Wednesday - Saturday

Dead Ringer
by Gino DiIorio
New England premiere
Now thru Sept.18

When hard-boiled film noir meets the American Western everyone wins - except poor Mary. It's Texas, 1885. Tyrus Cole, a crusty, ill-tempered horse trainer lives on a ranch with his invalid sister, Mary. Enter Dewey, a slightly goofy young stranger looking for help with his horse. Mystery, intrigue, and greed in a genre-bending comedy. (more) "Brendan Hughes... presents a tightly wound production, intense and suspenseful." CC Times

The place is Maggie's bar, a hangout at the end of a long pier. It is a densely foggy late afternoon... Sledge, a dispirited boat broker, tells Maggie that he is fed up with Randy, a local fisherman, and his fanciful, tall tales. When Randy tells his most bizarre story yet, Sledge bets his last and most precious possession that Randy cannot prove it. Promise arrives. This mysterious, yet enchanting visitor tells an ancient Celtic story about a group of men who fatefully sail to an idyllic, far off island. All of our characters must confront their demons, and as the night comes to an end, Promise's tale becomes eerily prophetic.
