We mentioned yesterday that Julia Roberts’ new play, “Three Days of Rain,” opened last night on Broadway. It’s sure to sell out due to Roberts’ star power and the play’s dramatic strength. Here’s a bit more about the plot:
Roberts plays Nan, the practical sister of the erratic Walker. The two are the children of a famous architect, who was business partners with the father of their longtime friend, Pip, the play’s third character. The first act finds the three, all somewhat estranged from one another, trying to dope out a journal left behind by Nan and Walker’s dad, particularly the mysterious entry “three days of rain.”
In act two, the time frame has shifted back in time a few decades and we meet the fathers of the three characters, as well as the magnetic and unstable woman who played a major role in both their lives.
Julia plays the daughter in the first act, and the mother in the second act. It sounds like a clever plot and it’s sure to be interesting.
Here’s Roberts signing autographs and leaving the theatre after what must have been a fabulous performance.
