dealing with the disappearance
of their 18 year old daughter
on a class trip in the Caribbean.
The mother enlists the help of a
mysterious detective to find out
what happened, and the story
details the rather dark journey
they embark on together.
“Wendie Malick has been involved with Closure from the
start, when we did a workshop at
Berkshire Playwrights Lab (which
is run by Joe Cacaci, the director of Closure, along with Matt
Penn and Jim Frangione),” said
Dresser. “Wendie has been a
driving force in the development
of the play as it evolved from
that initial workshop through numerous rewrites. And of course
having Wendie on board was
instrumental in assembling this
remarkable cast.”
In addition to Cole and Malick,
the cast includes Biniam Tekola
and Victor Verhaeghe. With everyone working in different parts
of the country, the rehearsal
schedule for Closure was a bit
crazy. Malick said that the cast
got together in New York for a
few days to go over the script
and then split up for a few weeks
before getting together again
