by Joseph Dougherty
Directed by Ron Lagomarsino
Starring Dan Clegg and David Strathairn
A.C.T. favorite and Academy Award nominee David Strathairn (Underneath the Lintel at A.C.T.; film: Good Night, and Good Luck; Lincoln) and award-winning Bay Area actor, and A.C.T. M.F.A. Program alumnus, Dan Clegg (Major Barbara at A.C.T., Tribes at Berkeley Rep) return to A.C.T. for a limited three-week engagement at The Strand.
Long Island, 1945. A young man in a military hospital has no memory of being involved in a tragic accident. A psychiatrist, played by Strathairn, is assigned the case, and in turn is faced with his own demons in this world premiere psychological drama. Written by Emmy Award–winning screenwriter and playwright Joseph Dougherty and directed by stage and television director Ron Lagomarsino, Chester Bailey is a thrilling new work that explores the unconscious power of the imagination, and the lies we tell ourselves in order to find wholeness and truth.
