PAINTING CHURCHES

The Churches being painted are Gardner and Fanny Church, remnants of a once flourishing tribe of Boston blue bloods. Gardner, and eminent poet, has started a graceful decent into senility so his wife Fanny is packing up their Boston Hill townhouse for a permanent move to their cottage on Cape Cod. Their daughter Mags, an artist who lives and works in New York City, is desperate to paint their portrait before they fade from view, but will they hold still? Hilarity and anguish prevail during a week of packing, posing, and remembering.
A limited run of the first New York revival of Pulitzer-finalist PAINTING CHURCHES, from the company that produced the recently acclaimed hits LEMON SKY, BENEFACTORS, and ALPHABETICAL ORDER.
