Solomon and Marion at Greenbelt Arts Center, Feb 27-Mar 7, Online

Solomon and Marion
By Laura Foot Newton
Directed by Ann Lowe-Barrett

Saturdays and Sundays, February 27 & 28, March 6 & 7, 2021
Streamed online via YouTube; may be viewed anytime between 9am and 11pm on performance days. Live talk-back with the playwright on Sunday, February 28 at 2:30pm

“Solomon and Marion” is the story of the unlikely friendship between:

Marion Banning, a white 63-year-old South African Woman of English descent. Marion is solid, has her feet on the ground – a wry sense of humor, generous and infinite need. She has lost her son and her husband and her will to live is diminished because of that.

Solomon Xaba, a young 19-year-old South African man of color from rural Xhoza. Inquisitive, aloof and fragile. He is thin because of a liver disease.
