Collected Stories

Arts DuPage Month Perk: After the performance on October 28, Village Theatre Guild will host a 60th Anniversary Reception, complete with appetizers and beverages. The cast, crew, and members will be on-site to discuss the production and the history of the Village Theatre Guild.

Graduate student Lisa Morrison is thrilled to be under the mentorship of her literary idol, Ruth Steiner. Over the years, Lisa becomes Ruth’s personal assistant and gradually her friend. But as Lisa’s career begins to flourish and Ruth’s begins to fade, can their friendship survive ambition, rivalry, and eventual betrayal? Collected Stories by Donald Margulies explores the complicated relationship between two independent women as they struggle to define what, if anything, is off-limits in art.
