Synopsis of Melancholy Play
A melodramatic comedy that celebrates the way we relate to one another through sadness. Tilly's melancholy is of an exquisite quality. She turns her melancholy into a sexy thing, and every stranger she meets falls in love with her. One day, inexplicably, Tilly becomes happy, wreaking havoc on the lives of her paramours.

"Melancholy Play" is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Samuel French, Inc. www.concordtheatricals.com
