Gabriel Fox, a famous actor nearly past his prime, makes a comeback as Richard III at a prominent, Tony-Award winning summer-stock theater. As Fox pursues a secret and questionable relationship with his twenty-one-year-old dresser Annie, he grows increasingly connected to the power-hungry Richard, only to find that his behavior will no longer go unchallenged…or will it? Drawing from Shakespeare’s play, yet firmly grounded in the present, QUICK, CHANGE explores power imbalance in the American theater, the repercussions of ‘networking,’ and the way people use and dispose of others. QUICK, CHANGE is a biting, urgent look at our culture at a tipping point.
