The Sea Concerto
The Story
The Sea Concerto follows Lynnie, a poet who has lost her creative voice. Now, a mysterious letter asks her to return to her childhood home to reclaim something of her father’s. Will it help explain why he gave up music? Will that answer help her write again? And can she ever forgive the betrayal that tore her family apart? In the spirit of classic memory plays like The Glass Menagerie and Side Man, The Sea Concerto explores the legacies of pain and resilience that we inherit, pass on, and sometimes let go.
What’s a Living Ticket? This production continues our Living Ticket initiative, which makes Flux’s shows free for all to attend. Well, not exactly free: it costs a lot to create these productions, and we want to provide our team a living wage. So while you don’t have to pay anything, we encourage you to support Flux with a donation when you reserve your Living Ticket. To learn what it would take for us to pay a living wage, check out our Open Book program, which shares our production budget and suggests levels of giving.

The Cast
Corey Allen is Eric
Share a favorite memory of the ocean. I grew up in Southern California so there are MANY, but for today my favorite memory of the sea would have to be trekking from the Greek mainland to the Cyclades for the first time. The waters of the Aegean are beautiful. There’s so much history and culture in the region and I had a magical time there.
When you visit your childhood home, what’s the one thing you always do? Visit my favorite jetty at night. There’s nothing like seeing the moonlit waves crashing against the rocks and shoreline.

Greg Oliver Bodine is Jimbo
Share a favorite memory of the ocean. Surf-casting with my brother on a deserted beach in Montauk at 7am. We never caught any fish…and we never cared.

Emily Hartford is Penny
Share a favorite memory of the ocean. My mom grew up next to the ocean, and my siblings and I were never very far from it, either. When we were kids we’d spend a lot of time at my grandparents’ home on Martha’s Vineyard (just a short drive and ferry ride, by the way, from Sea Concerto’s beach). My grandmother had her own spot on the beach down the street from their home, where she spent every day of every summer—straight down from the entrance, tucked against the jetty, just at the edge of the tide. She spent 65 summers in that spot, as far as I know, and I got to spend a small fraction of those there with her. It’s a powerful place for me. Last year, two days before I got married on Martha’s Vineyard, a tropical storm battered the Cape and Islands. After accepting that there was a limit to the wedding-crisis-management one could do about canceled boats and delayed flights, I took a walk in the storm. I wound up at the beach, in front of Memere’s spot. I really wish that she were still around—to know Ned…to know me as I’ve become. To understand how well I love the home she created on this island. But standing there in her spot, I was pressed and filled by the force of the wind and the ocean and the rain. I was ready to greet my own new frontiers, full of the legacy of the ocean-women who got me here.
When you visit your childhood home, what’s the one thing you always do? Share a few beers with my mom.

John Lenartz is Chappy
Share a favorite memory of the ocean. At about 13 years old I was invited for a week’s venture on a US Navy Submarine Tender from Charleston, SC to Ft. Lauderdale, FL. I stayed in my Dad’s tiny cabin, he was a Lieutenant Commander and the Chief Engineering Officer aboard. I got full run of the ship and had a blast going by myself and a few other kids exploring the vessel and watched the ocean go by for miles on end.
When you visit your childhood home, what’s the one thing you always do? I don’t have a childhood home since we moved around so much growing up. My Mom, my only parent surviving, lives in Augusta, GA now, near my brother Bill. One thing I’ve consistently done when I’ve visited is dig through my Mom’s paperwork, photos, and memorabilia looking for genealogy or family history items that I may have overlooked the last time.

Morgan McGuire is Lynnie
Share a favorite memory of the ocean. My father’s family lives in this magical place in the very most north western tip of California where the redwoods meet the sea. For most of my childhood my grandparents farm was isolated and nestled between groves of evergreens but only a mile from the beach. It has this special smell of salt and wood and dirt that is intoxicating and at night the fog horn from the harbor would rhythmically lull you to sleep.
When you visit your childhood home, what’s the one thing you always do? They don’t live there anymore. But they do live in a very magic place on a hill with much better sunsets and so I guess I make it a point to watch those.
Bio: Morgan McGuire is originally from the foothills of the Sierra Nevada, is a Brooklyn based actress and playwright. She received her Bachelor of Fine Arts from Marymount Manhattan College. Recent acting credits include: Exit Man, TRAPPER, Cul-de-Sac, Film: Camp Wedding, Takers, Unbelievers. To find out more about her visit: www.morganamcguire.com
Alisha Spielmann is Janet
Share a favorite memory of the ocean. I’ll give you three: my sister getting married, the feeling the ocean has always given me of being so wonderfully and fantastically minuscule, and whale watching. Because I love whales.
When you visit your childhood home, what’s the one thing you always do? I would always love getting to play (and take a selfie) with our family dog Choxie the minute I got home. And I most definitely always take a moment and look up at the stars in our backyard. You can actually see them there in Minnesota.

The Creative Team
Corinna Schulenburg, Playwright
Share a favorite memory of the ocean. You mean other than all the things that are in this play? Hmm. Maybe it’s easier for me to talk about the Pacific because when it’s the Atlantic, I need like a whole play to talk about it. So the Pacific is all right, too, as it turns out. A few years back we visited family near San Francisco and went to a beach where there must have been 20-30 whales putting on a show not far off shore. That was really something. You couldn’t believe it was happening, and it kept on happening.
When you visit your childhood home, what’s the one thing you always do? Games, games, games. My family loves games. How else do people even talk to each other? But I also offer up some brooding to the pond behind our house, and mourn the scar where the basketball hoop once stood.

Heather Cohn, Co-Director
Share a favorite memory of the ocean. I’ve never cared much for New Year’s celebrations…but for the new millennium, I was told that the first place the sun would rise in the new millennium in the U.S. was at the easternmost beach on Nantucket. So, that’s where I went. There were three of us, bundled and bleary-eyed, walking through the cold sand at dawn to watch the sun rise over the horizon on the first morning of the new millennium. We sat, huddled together under blankets in silence until the sun was fully up. Then we ate donuts and had coffee from a thermos. We probably talked about things, but I don’t remember the conversation, just the peace and stillness. In that moment, there was no Y2K, no worries of the year to come, no stress, no time.
When you visit your childhood home, what’s the one thing you always do? My mom refers to my childhood bedroom as “The Heather Museum” because it is a time capsule of space with pre-puberty Heather chosen wallpaper (pastel kitty cats); keepsakes from all the various musicals and plays I did in middle school and high school (the most prominent of which is a 4 x 4 foot sculpted styrofoam carousel horse from CAROUSEL); stuffed animals, fairytales, and school notebooks galore. But in a small tupperware box with a green lid is a collection of folded square paper notes from elementary & middle school friends. Each time I return home, I open the box and read one of those notes, and remember.

Kelly O’Donnell, Co-Director
When you visit your childhood home, what’s the one thing you always do? Sea Isle City (or Little Ireland) with my huge extended family, trying to “dig to China” with a plastic shovel, playing under the boardwalk in Wildwood NJ with my best friend who died too young, my mother and I watching dolphins hunt in Cape May, many trips up and down the Pacific Coast Highway with my Pop and some of my most cherished friends, collecting “Cape May diamonds” with strangers, standing alone on the cliffs of Inis Mór, walking along the P-Town shore at night with my wife. All of these things feel like home.
When you visit your childhood home, what’s the one thing you always do? I tip my hat to the ghosts and demons of my past. Then I usually get a soft pretzel with mustard.

Will Lowry, Scenic Designer
Share a favorite memory of the ocean. I spent three summers working at The Lost Colony in the NC Outerbanks. The theatre was right on the water (though technically the Roanoke Sound, so only ocean-adjacent), and the elements pervade my memories of the experience. One notable feature of the Sound was that you could walk a few hundred feet into the water and still only be waist deep. I still have a clear memory of wading in the water with friends one crystal clear night, far from any light sources. Looking around, I was overwhelmed with the grandeur of nature as the dark water, occasionally dotted by phosphorescent organisms, stretched seemingly forever below, and the most brilliant, star-speckled sky I had ever seen yawned infinitely above.
When you visit your childhood home, what’s the one thing you always do? This is a bit of a tough question. Partly, because I don’t know of any particular rituals I consciously performed—I enjoyed sitting on the porch, I always drifted into nostalgia reentering my bedroom, etc.—but there wasn’t a specific thing I purposely made sure to do. The other reason it’s a tough question is because in 2016, the home my parents built was sold when my mom moved north to be closer to my brother and me. And, even though it’s been two years, I don’t think it’s really hit me yet that I can no longer return.
Bio: Will Lowry is a multidisciplinary designer with an MFA from UNC Greensboro, and he has been a Creative Partner with Flux since 2011. This is his eighteenth Flux production, the most recent being World Builders (NY & LA). He has completed over 110 scenic, costume, and lighting designs ranging between New York, regional, and academic theatre, and he has worked as an assistant on eleven Broadway productions. He serves as an Assistant Professor of Theatre at Lehigh University. Love to B&P. will-lowry.com
Kia Rogers, Lighting Designer
Share a favorite memory of the ocean. I grew up on the coast of North Carolina, and the ocean is my heart. One of the most beautiful memories I can share are with my father. After my parents divorced when I was 5 years old, Weds nights my dad would take me to the beach for dinner and a walk on Johnny Mercers pier. I still remember holding his hand as we would walk down the pier, looking down at the wide weathered boards that spaced out just enough I thought I could slip through. Watching the moon rise and just feeling so special that I was out with my dad for the evening. He made me fall in love with the sea, and I can’t imagine being more than a couple hours drive from the ocean no matter where I live. it is a part of me.
When you visit your childhood home, what’s the one thing you always do? Visit the ocean, I grew up on the coast of North Carolina. It is a beautiful coastline and my heart. At Topsail Beach they have these smooth, round stones that wash up, no one knows exactly why, but my dad loved these stones, especially the round gray ones, he said they reminded him of the moon, so we called them “moon stones”. We would walk along the beach looking for the perfect round ones. I still remember the feel and sound of them in my pockets, sandy and smooth, rolling around in my hands. When I go back I look for one or two stones to take back with me and I keep a collection with me as a reminder of home.

Gabriel Caldwell, Technical Director
Share a favorite memory of the ocean. When I was 18, I took a trip to Florida with my dad. I’d never seen the ocean before. The water left so much salt on my skin and I forgot to shower after diving in, so when it dried it felt like my skin was peeling off. Still had a great time, though.
When you visit your childhood home, what’s the one thing you always do? My family moved a lot, so I never really had a childhood home. The home we spent the most time in might be demolished. But when I come to wherever my family is planted at the time, I find the stuff that’s made it through nine houses. Little knick knacks, 8 years of sketchbooks, my grandfather’s pocket knife. I pick them up and put them down, just to check they’re still intact.
