AMERICAN ROOTS RE-AWAKENED
LEWISTON. The limitless frontier once explored by Meriwether Lewis has shrunk for one of his descendants to a tiny sliver of land on which she runs a small roadside fireworks stand. 2014 MacArthur Genius Grant recipient Samuel D.

Over the course of a single day, Eugene ONeill's autobiographical Tyrone family, torn between love and hatred, blame and pity for one another, grapple with their demons in perhaps the greatest American play of the 20th Century. A deep dive into the dark soul of the American dream. November 11 - 21.
MY WITCH. And bookending the season, our friends at Fat Knight Theatre (CHIPANDGUS, BST 2017) bring us Jean Tafler as the woman behind the original Miss Gulch in John Ahlin's My Witch: The Margaret Hamilton Stories. December 3 12
