Tryst (drama)

Tryst (drama)

Tryst had its debut on April 6 2006 at the Promenade Theatre in New York.

The play, by British playwright Karoline Leach, has been described as a "subversion of Edwardian melodrama", in which the stereotypical actions and responses of the characters are used to ask usually unasked questions about the motivations and power-relationships of the characters.

The 2006 off-Broadway premiere starred Maxwell Caulfield and Amelia Campbell.

The play was then produced in 2007 at the Black Dahlia Theater in Los Angeles, starring Gabriel Olds and Deborah Puette. The play got positive reviews [http://www.thedahlia.com/index.php?id=65&entityType=HTML&version=2] [http://www.entertainmenttoday.net/content/view/235/28/] , and Gabriel received 6 nominations for Best Actor [ [http://www.variety.com/article/VR1117980190.html?categoryid=15&cs=1&nid=2569 L.A. drama critics announce noms - Entertainment News, Legit News, Media - Variety ] ] [ [http://www.entertainmenttoday.net/content/view/457/28/ TICKETHOLDER AWARDS 2007 (1 of 2) - Entertainment Today - Business, Movie, Music, Industry and Technology News Since 1967 ] ] [ [http://www.laweekly.com/stage/theater/the-29th-annual-la-weekly-theater-awards-the-rock-opera/18315/?page=2 LA Weekly - Stage - The 29th Annual L.A.
