"The Last Romance" Takes Center Stage

Layered with both drama and romance, Domino Theatre’s latest production promises audiences a warm play that is perfect for a cold January evening.

Jenny Nash and Gordon Muir star in Domino Theatre’s Last Romance, which is on stage until Jan. 27.

The Last Romance, directed by theatre veteran Ken Weston, and starring Gordon Muir, Barbara Dennett and Penny Nash, will run in the Davies Foundation Auditorium at the Domino Theatre Thursdays Jan. 10 through Jan. 27.

The play tells the story of Ralph, an 80-year-old widower sharing his home with his rather overbearing sister Rose.

An avid opera lover, Ralph missed out on a career as an opera singer because of an unfortunate incident in his youth.

On one of his daily walks, Ralph takes a different path than usual, and meets a woman named Carol. A romance develops between the two, and Carol, as a gift, decides to take Ralph to Italy’s LaScala.
As in many romances, things do not turn out the way they are planned.

“It’s a warm, touching and funny play,” said Weston of The Last Romance, which was written by Joe DiPietro.

“It is sweet, it has an unexpected ending. The play doesn’t end the way you think it’s going to,” Weston continued.
