Can one truly find love in a moment?  Or is it something built, over years of a life?   What if it stared you right in the eye—would you meet its gaze, or run away and hide?  Tony-award winning playwright Terrence McNally tries to answer these questions in the story of Frankie and Johnny, waitress and cook at the local diner whose one-night stand sets the stage for a comic, tender, and finally transcendent meditation on the desires that bind us together and the fears that keep us apart.  Come join Laurie LaMountain (so good in last year’s Coupla White Chicks…!) and Michael Early as they take on the titular couple in a new production by the DAC’s own Jamie Hook on our fabulous, tiny Maine Stage!
