The Pavilion starts with an overview of the creation of the universe and ends with “the sweetheart dance” between two ex-lovers at their 20th high school reunion in tiny Pine City, Minnesota. It is a sad, funny, and highly theatrical tale about love, loss, hope, and the fact that, like it or not, time only moves in one direction. Playwright Craig Wright is a prolific, award-winning playwright who has also written for Lost and Six Feet Under, for which he was nominated for an Emmy.
