Directed by Eva Reid
Ryan - Ben Kennedy Constance - Bonny Branch Nasira -Breana Venable Bo - David Colatosti Sal - Emma Sala Sister Scholar - Nancy Lawrence Stage Directions - Ronald Blanks, Jr
Ryan Kurtz has come of age and is now faced with the completion of a religious ritual as part of his family's faith. Bo Algate's political future is faced with a possible stall. Sal is busy recruiting members to support her own political and personal convictions. When a disaster strikes the province, they all must decide how their own beliefs will influence the future of their country.
About the Festival: Each year, our New Works Advisory Board reads between 50 and 100 plays taken from the cumulative body of work of student playwrights who will be coming for the current summer session. These plays are ranked and vetted, and ten are selected for staged readings in collaboration with directors associated with our program--Certificate students, visiting faculty and guest artists.
These readings are presented free to the public, but there is limited seating. We also bring in more than a dozen guest responders who are active working theatre professionals from across the country. Many of our festival readings have gone on to be published, produced and won major awards. Come see tomorrow's stars today!
Our festival is presented in collaboration with Mill Mountain Theatre on their Waldron Stage.
