TIME STANDS STILL Plays North Coast Rep, Now thru 3/17

North Coast Repertory Theatre will present Time Stands Still by Donald Margulies. Directed by David Ellenstein, the show runs tonight, February 23 - March 17, 2013.

Widely hailed as one of the best new plays on Broadway, Time Stands Still is the story of James and Sarah, a journalist and a photographer, who have been together for nine years and share a passion for documenting the realities of war. But when injuries force them to return home to New York, the adventurous couple confronts the prospect of a more conventional life. A blazingly important new work about responsibility - to ourselves, to our loved ones, to our community, and to our world.
