Carson Matte performs in 'Big Love' at Coastal Carolina

2017 Apr 4

Carson Matte, of Duluth, GA, was one of 31 Coastal Carolina University students who had a role in the comedic play "Big Love," performed eight times through April 8 at CCU's Myrtle Beach Education Center.

Written by American playwright Charles Mee and first performed in 2000, "Big Love" is a modern adaptation of Aeschylus' Greek tragedy "The Suppliants." Fifty sister brides flee to an Italian villa to escape arranged marriage contracts with their 50 cousins. The comedic, gymnastic, sensual, shocking and redemptive story explores such topics as refugees, gender politics, love and violence as the expectant grooms seek to fulfill their pacts.
