TIME STANDS STILL at The Cloverdale Playhouse

Come and experience the Cloverdale Playhouse, Montgomery's community theater!
Time Stands Still by Donald Margulies is the second show of the 2025 Cloverdale Playhouse Season.
The show opens on Thursday, May 1, and runs through Sunday, May 11. Showtimes are at 7 PM on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday and at 2 PM on Sunday.

Time Stands Still focuses on Sarah and James, a photojournalist and a foreign correspondent trying to find happiness in a world that seems to have gone crazy. Theirs is a partnership based on telling the toughest stories, and together, making a difference. But when their own story takes a sudden turn, the adventurous couple confronts the prospect of a more conventional life.

“Mr. Margulies is gifted at creating complex characters through wholly natural interaction, allowing the emotional layers, the long histories, the hidden kernels of conflict to emerge organically. Throughout, his dialogue crackles with bright wit and intelligence. Although TIME STANDS STILL is deceptively modest, consisting of a handful of conversations among just four characters, the range of feeling it explores is wide and deep.” —The New York Times.

“Can you be a dispassionate, uninvolved observer of horrific events, recording them for posterity and still keep a sense of right and wrong, not to mention your sanity? It’s one of several questions getting a workout in TIME STANDS STILL…Insightful writing, the work is smart, stylish, timely and layered with an intriguing seriousness that inspires discussion after the curtain comes down—a rarity these days.” —Associated Press.

There is a Walk-Up Wednesday performance on May 7, which means a donation of any amount grants you entry to see the show, and all proceeds are donated to a charity that is related to the topic of the play. The charity selected for this show is PEERS America, a nonprofit that helps veterans with mental health and housing access.
