The Busy World is Hushed
Professional West Coast Premiere
by Keith Bunin
directed by Robin Stanton
June 13 - July 20, 2008
Hailed as “poignant and real” by Variety and “intriguing . . . engaging” by The New York Times, THE BUSY WORLD IS HUSHED is a thought-provoking, moving look at religion, faith, and the complexities of the human heart. Episcopalian minister and bible scholar Hannah contracts a ghostwriter to help her pen a book about a newly discovered gospel. As they set to work putting her thoughts into print, her troubled gay son, fresh from his latest attempt to find himself, wanders back into her life. W hen family secrets are revealed, only the intercession of a stranger can help make peace. Robin Stanton, who directed Aurora Theatre Company’s astonishing production of PermanentCollection, directs this stirring examination of the contradictions we find in our families and ourselves.
