STORY AND PHOTO BY KAREN BOSSICK

Kyra and Tom seem ill-fitted.

They can’t find common ground in politics, economics or even cooking matters.

Yet, one night this 30-ish schoolteacher and wealth restaurant and hotel entrepreneur are brought together for a reunion over spaghetti and flinging of cutlery.

A self-made man, he can’t believe that this woman who grew up in affluence now lives in a freezing cold, dilapidated apartment in a London slum. He pokes fun at her, to the point of insulting her. And she’s still smarting from her fling with the man two decades her senior when she was 18.

Now, Tom’s wife has died and he’s come to reclaim the girl who got away. Complicating things is Tom’s son Edward, who thought of Kyra as his big sister when she was living with his family so many years ago. And he wants to know why she abruptly left.

Can their relationship be rekindled?

Sawtooth Productions and Laughing Stock Theater Company will present a free reading of Sir David Hare’s award-winning drama “Skylight” at 6 p.m. tonight—Monday, Feb. 26—at Gail Severn Gallery in Ketchum.

The play reading features Kagen Albright, Andrew Alburger and Charlotte Hemmings.

The play opened on Broadway in 1996, with its two actors and director earning Tony Award nominations for their performances. The play received a Tony nomination for Best Play and won the New York Drama Critics’ Circle Award for Best Foreign Play, as well as the 1996 Laurence Olivier Award for Play of the Year.
