ABOUT THE PLAY
CLASSIC AND TIMELESS
Tanya Barfield’s play shares the four and a half decade story of Vicky and Erica, who meet, fall in love, and go through all the trials and tribulations of a family and a life together. The play connects moment to moment, in an innovative style that keeps the audience intrigued and enthralled. Barfield is an award winning playwright who also writes for television and co-directs the playwriting program at Julliard.

“Romantic! Virtuosic! For sheer loveliness, you won’t surpass Tanya Barfield’s exquisite Bright Half Life.”
—Time Out New York
​
“This well-written portrayal of smart women finding, losing, and finding themselves and each other again, is profound…past, present, and future are contained in each moment, and every one of them feels full.”
—The New Yorker
