Regional Premiere

At once funny and poignant, An Infinite Ache chronicles a 60-year relationship, beginning with an uninspiring first date. As Hope and Charles are about to say goodnight, Charles envisions the infinite possibilities of their lives together: From their first kiss to their first child, from a terrible tragedy to a new beginning, time melts away with breathtaking speed as playwright David Schulner captures the extraordinary power of an enduring promise in an ever-changing world.

Directed by Peter Webster.
