Description
A reclusive librarian finds a book 123 years overdue and he's compelled to embark on a worldwide quest to track down the borrower and in the process uncovers a mystery that transcends the ages…or is he just mad?
Starring Patrick O'Brien as The Librarian.
"LINTEL is seductively entertaining…O’Brien crackles with intensity. He has reached deep inside this odd duck for an honest portrayal that wastes not a single tic, sly wink, or aside. He finds more in the script than Berger perhaps ever intended, and the play is richer for it." Graydon Royce, Star Tribune theater critic
"This curiously funny drama of life’s most curious stuff is not to be missed!" New York Times
"An astonishingly beautiful piece of writing!" Seattle Weekly
"A blissfully ludicrous vision quest, outrageously funny, madly literate; a stunner!" L.A.Weekly
