“First Love teaches you how to love. Great Love perfects that love. Last Love...well, we never really figured out what Last Love did.”
“Tim Without Thalia” and “Thalia With Someone Else” sprung from a place of being tired, but not yet sleepy. The “quarter-life crisis” if you will: When everyone else seems to be getting married, having kids, starting their own basket-weaving businesses, except you. When relationships between college friends break and relationships between “real life” friends…break. When love is dictated as much by actual romance, as it is by power. Yet you still feel oddly euphoric about it all.
In these two companion plays, Tim, Thalia, and their clueless but well-meaning friends wax idiotic on the rules of modern romance: the chase, the connection, and, of course, the end.
Produced April 30 – May 2, 2009 in Virginia Tech’s Performing Arts Building under the direction of Dr. Patricia Raun, Theatre Arts Department Head.
