CROSS THE THRESHOLD in Tremont's only Theater

convergence-continuum's artistic home is the intimate performance space known as The Liminis. Its name was created from an ancient word meaning "threshold." It is a space between two realities. The Liminis is transfigured for every production, so that when you cross its threshold, you leave behind the conventional reality of everyday life, and are immersed within the unique world of the play to experience it close-up, from the inside.

This season we invite you to cross the threshold with us,
to venture into five unique realms of the mind, body and spirit and experience their wit, wonder, terrors, triumphs, laughter, love and so much more. The first of five,

MR. MARMALADE
by Noah Haidle
directed by Arthur Grothe
April 4 - May 3

Cross the threshold into a child's world of fantasy.

Lucy is a four-year old girl with a very active imagination. Unfortunately her imaginary best friend, Mr. Marmalade, doesn't have much time for her. What with his high pressure corporate job, he can barely pencil her in for a play date anymore. And he's so stressed and angry these days. Then there's his drug problem. But the inventive Lucy is determined to make Mr. M play house, even if it causes unexpected bizarre results and unleashes hilarious mayhem among her strange collection of both real and imagined family and friends.

Company member Arthur Grothe, director of last year's hit production of Act a Lady, returns to the helm for Noah Haidle's alternately hilarious and heartbreaking satiric fantasy, Mr. Marmalade, a wild romp of a savage dark comedy about what it takes to grow up in these difficult times.
