NEW YORK—Rekindling an old flame later in life can bring great joy as long as those involved can come to terms with the past. This idea is the focus of Lia Romeo’s two-character drama “Still,” presented by Colt Coeur at Off-Broadway’s DR2 Theatre.
Sixty-somethings Helen (Jayne Atkinson) and Mark (Tim Daly) were very much in love in their younger days. It was a relationship that ended over 30 years ago due to the two being at different points in their lives and wanting different things. Since that time, Helen has gone on to become a respected writer, while Mark has had a successful career as a lawyer. While they have remained friends since the breakup, their meeting for dinner, at the hotel where Mark is staying while in town on business, is the first time they have seen each other in decades.
