Lanford Wilson’s TALLEY & SON

Boston University College of Fine Arts School of Theatre presents TALLEY & SON | By Lanford Wilson | Directed by Sidney Friedman | Independence Day, 1944, the parlor of the Talley homestead in Lebanon, Missouri. As World War II rages across the seas, the Talleys are beset with crises of a different sort. Richly textured, and suffused with humor and deeply affecting compassion, the play examines a family beset with strains from within and without—and about to begin its inevitable decline.
