On a quiet night at a Philadelphia bar, three kindred spirits find themselves on the cusp of change. Loneliness haunts Lou, a kind bartender set in his ways. He finds company with Stella, a feisty nurse with two grown kids and a failed marriage, and Donnie, a young barfly teetering between excitement and uncertainty about his upcoming wedding.
All three must face up to changing times and relationships past as they struggle to embrace the future in this funny and compassionate new play. From the author The Outgoing Tide, a huge hit at Galway Arts Festival 2012, Stella & Lou is an intimate exploration of friendship, forgiveness and the longing for companionship.
