There Is a Happiness That Morning Is

Theater On The Run
3700 South Four Mile Run Drive Arlington

WSC Avant Bard presents a delightful tale of lust in academia and a comedy in rhyming couplets. Two William Blake scholars are forced to apologize to their classes for their highly inappropriate public display of affection if they want to save their jobs. (A reprise of the acclaimed production for the 2013 Capital Fringe Festival’s fallFRINGE.)

"...There is one howl of a good time at There is a Happiness that Morning Is at WSC Avant Bard. The production is a masterly feat of acting prowess full of precise, adroit comic work and squinting eye ability to speak in rhymed couplets at dizzying speeds. All with three actors who are more often than not seen on the edges of plays rather than at the center. Not this time! This time the center of attention comes convincingly to and is well-earned by Lynn Sharp Spears and Brian Crane, along with key scene work of Mario Baldessari."

"...The show takes a major turn to the absurd as President Dean (Mario Baldessari) shows up and, in an effectively manic performance, provides another insight to their existence and relationship to each other. As he essentially flips the table, Bernard and Ellen reassess what they thought they knew – or felt — or both."
