Sierra Madre Playhouse (Sierra Madre, CA)
Sierra Madre Playhouse presents Lee Blessing’s Pulitzer- and Tony Award-nominated drama A Walk in the Woods. Two superpower arms negotiators — one a witty but cynical Russian veteran and the other an earnest and idealistic American newcomer — meet for informal walks in the woods after long, frustrating hours at the bargaining table. Filled with unexpected humor and extraordinary humanity, it’s an absorbing, revealing and brilliant debate on the eternal hope and relentless futility of high-stakes politics. This 1988 play was inspired by the true story of two passionate men who had the courage to forge a nuclear weapons agreement without the support of their governments. Now, more than a quarter of a century later, the theme remains as relevant as ever.
