Music for Theatre CHICAGO's original work submerges audiences into the dystopian, futuristic world of the American Territory in a story that pushes the bounds of "what if" and the consequences of decisions.
24 years after the second civil war, former Citizens who didn't conform to The Leader's five principals redefine life in a world where all of America's freedoms are lost.
Written in the style of a Greek tragedy, Homeland 24: The People's Play looks into the lives and relationships of self righteous Citizens, their glutenous lifestyles and the hardship they impose on Outsiders who were forced behind the wall during The Great Migration. Although political in nature, H24 magnifies the "what if" of post war America and a land where you are what The Leader wants you to be unless you want to give up your life.
The large cast of highly developed characters represent this split society where only Citizens can speak, becoming a slave is a daily probability and loving someone could cost you both your freedom and life. Homeland has audiences roaring in laughter, routing for heroes and fighting back tears.
Homeland 24: The People's Play opens June 28th at Piven Theatre in Evanston. Seating is general admission in this intimate black box theatre. Tickets go on sale May 25th! Buy early before this relevant story sells out!
