Play Summary

Sarah and Libby, two long widowed sisters spend their summers on the coast of Maine.  Libby, the eldest, who is nearly blind has grown irritable and reclusive, now awaits the coming of “the escort” who will carry her off to join her husband.  Sarah, who is much younger, has taken care of her sister for years.  She now longs to be freed from responsibility and frustration that caring for her sister entails.  Enter Mr. Maranov, the debonair Russian Count who provides a diversion for her.  Each sister has a different reaction to his presence.  But alas, life goes on.
