Saturn Returns

Running Time

The planet Saturn's orbital return to its position at the moment of a person's birth happens every thirty years. In SATURN RETURNS, playwright Noah Haidle uses this phenomenon to take a look at one man - Gustin (played at the three different stages of his life by Robert Eli, John McMartin and James Rebhorn) - during these pivotal moments as he confronts the three women in his life (all played by Rosie Benton).

Playwright Noah Haidle is the author of the plays Persephone, directed by Nicholas Martin at Boston's Huntington Theater, Vigils, produced at Chicago's Goodman Theater and Washington, D.C.'s Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company, Mr. Marmalade, seen in New York at the Roundabout Theatre after premiering at the South Coast Rep in Costa Mesa, Ca., Princess Marjorie, which also premiered at the South Coast Rep and Rag and Bone, produced by the Long Wharf Theatre.
