Description:

Michele Lowe’s String of Pearls is a whirlwind of lives stitched together by a single strand of pearls. Bridging many years and several continents, the story brings together the loves and losses of twenty-seven women, all played by just four actors. It’s a sympathetic collage of romance, generations, and questions.

Lowe’s play takes us on a guided tour of the milestones of the heart. As we look backwards to our childhoods, and forward to our own personal winters, we sense the meeting of the cosmic with the tininess of the local. These cycles will be forever passed on: pearls on a string.
