"Pretend that we're the only two people in the entire world, that's what I'm doing, and it all falls into place."

Johnny, a short-order cook in a diner, goes home with Frankie, a waitress, for a one-night-stand. Both are past their prime, having had their share of hard life and painful love. But Johnny knows the real thing when he sees it, and he's desperate to crack Frankie's hardened heart before she sends him home and they lose their chance for true love. 'Frankie and Johnny in the Clair de Lune' by celebrated playwright Terrence McNally is an intimate, witty, bittersweet, romantic play about the forging of a relationship between two lonely mid-life lovers. The connection of this seemingly mis-matched pair shows that the real deal is available to all those who seek it.
