Lisa Langseth’s BELOVED is not your usual love story, and Katerina (Ellinor DiLorenzo) is more than willing to tell it to you with complete (sometimes uncomfortable) candor. There’s profanity, sexuality, and graphic descriptions – all serving to make you a part of the illicit affair she has with an older sophisticated man. What happens when you are exposed to a new world that you weren’t even aware existed? Her longing for heights she never dreamed possible co-mingles with her adoration of her married lover and holds power over the choices that she makes.

On stage for a full 90 minutes by herself, DiLorenzo is an amazing storyteller, managing to not only hold your interest but take you along her roller-coaster journey. You will have mixed emotions at the end of BELOVED, quite likely because we have all made choices based on wanting to be an “improved” version of ourselves and tentatively trying to figure out where to draw the line. And who among us hasn’t used love as an excuse for questionable and sometimes self-destructive behavior?
