Venue Ensemble Theatre (VET) is scheduled to present LATER LIFE by A.R. Gurney February 12-28, 2010 at Venue Theatre Pinellas Park, FL.
"Later Life" tells what happens when Austin, a Boston banker, is unexpectedly thrown together at a cocktail party with Ruth, a woman he met as a serviceman one night in Capri 30-odd years ago. As a young man, he let Ruth get away. Given a second chance in "Later Life," will the outcome be different?

Jim: witty gay gentleman with a nicotine addiction who is constantly trying to quit smoking
Roy: retiree who wants to leave Boston and relocate to Florida despite his wife's protests.
Duane: computer geek
Ted: an "everyday Southern guy" who just moved to Boston with his wife and is enjoying the city
