Leonard's Car is an award-winning three woman comedy-infused drama by Dallas playwright, Isabella Russell-Idesfeatures an exuberant artist, Molly Ivronsky, as the wreckless driver at the play's center. Her heady flirtation with suicide, a misguided attempt to secure artistic legacy, puts her on a collison course with memory and two grown daughters who remember differently. Powerful offstage characters exert their own gravitation pull. A suicided grandmother, for one. The dead lover, Leonard, for another. Should Molly restore Leonard's 1955 T-bird and drive into the big nowhere á la Thelma and Louise? The play unfolds in a lively dance of competing narratives as the characters vie for control over family legacy; past, present and future. "The writing is crisp, clever and fresh; the emotions big, brazen and ballsy." [1] Leon RabinIsabella Russell-IdesThelma and Louise
