Silver Line Theatre Exchange Presents Sylvia

“Sylvia” by A.R. Gurney is a witty and poignant exploration of marriage and mid-life challenges. Set in Manhattan, it follows Greg, a financial trader nearing the end of his career, and his wife Kate, a public-school English teacher gaining new opportunities. Their lives take a comedic turn when Greg brings home a dog named Sylvia, hilariously portrayed by a human. This street-smart mix of Lab and poodle becomes a source of contention, as Greg finds solace in Sylvia amidst his frustrations, while Kate sees her as a rival for Greg’s affection. As their marriage teeters on the brink, the couple navigates a series of humorous and touching events that ultimately lead them to compromise. This play is part of Silverline’s Professional Performance Series, which connects local artists with production opportunities and showcases exceptional talent in regional theatre.
