The Western Piedmont Symphony, the professional orchestra of the western foothills of North Carolina, presents a richly cinematic program spanning drama, romance, and exotic color. Highlights include Goldmark’s Overture to Sakuntala, Bizet’s L’Arlésienne Suite No. 1, Steiner’s sweeping Casablanca Suite, and Saint-Saëns’ evocative Piano Concerto No. 5, “Egyptian”. Acclaimed Canadian pianist Sheng Cai, known for his expressive depth and virtuosic command, brings international flair to this captivating concert experience.

The setting is a walk-up apartment on Manhattan's West Side where, as the curtain rises, Frankie (a waitress) and Johnny (a short-order cook who works in the same restaurant) are discovered in bed. It is their first encounter, after having met several weeks ago on the job, and Frankie is hopeful that Johnny will now put on his clothes and depart, so she can

return to her usual routine of watching TV and eating ice cream. But Johnny, a compulsive talker (and romantic), has other ideas. He is convinced that he loves Frankie, a notion that she, at first, considers to be ridiculous. She has had more disappointments than delights in life, and he is the veteran of one broken marriage already. And neither of them is in the bloom of youth. Yet out of their sometimes touching, sometimes hilarious interplay the promise of a relationship beyond a "one-night stand" does begin to emerge and, as the lights dim, the two are back in bed again, but this time side-by-side, holding hands before the glowing television screen.

​

Frankie and Johnny at the Clair de Lune is produced by Multiverse Theatre Collective.

This production includes adult themes and language.
