Talking Heads 2 is the second in a series of dramatic monologues by
British humorist, Alan Bennett.  Originally written for BBC television,
Talking Heads 2 has since been performed in live theater and televised
on PBS' Masterpiece Theater.  Bennett's "talking heads" are anything but
boring or monotonous.  The characters he portrays in this series of
thought- provoking monologues represent a menagerie of repressed souls.
Although the subjects of these monologues are very different, the
underlying feelings of loneliness, sadness and regret are very much the
same for the characters that Bennett portrays so candidly, yet
humorously.  

 

Talking Heads 2 is in the Studio Theater, November 7 through December 7.
Show times are 8:00 pm Fridays and Saturdays and 3:00 pm Sundays.
Tickets are $28 for adults, $25 for seniors, $17 for students (22 and
under with I.D.).  To reserve tickets, contact the Beck Center box
