Hello Neohiopalers,

 

I want to personally invite you to attend Home Sweet Homeland in the
Stocker Arts Center's Studio Theatre this Friday or Saturday night. This
workshop production of a new play by Joanna Rush, directed by Tony award
nominee Lynne Taylor-Corbett, marks the culmination of an amazing 10-day
residency at LCCC.  Stocker Arts Center and the Arts and Humanities
Division of the College have joined forces to bring two extremely
talented and dynamic Broadway actors, an award-winning
director/choreographer and the playwright/actor to our area. It's been a
wonderful journey to this point, giving breath to a new play in just 5
very intense days!

Stocker's Home Sweet Homeland is the first staged production of Ms.
Rush's play, which follows five neighbors through the events of
September 11th, 2001, from the attack, to their evacuation and eventual
return to - or abandonment of - their Ground Zero homes. All are
devastated and full of doubt about the world and about each other. Life
is forever changed. Together, a young boy, a musician, a financial
analyst and a couple of comediennes stumble through the pathways of mind
and heart to seek the truth and find their way back to trust and
laughter. 


Broadway Veterans Robert Cuccioli (Tony-nominee, Jekyll and Hyde), Erin
Leigh Peck (just finished the Off-Broadway run of The Toxic Avengers)
and Joanna Rush, are joined by Northeast Ohio Actors, David Arredondo,
Meryem Errouiam, Shenal Hathurusinghe, Kaitlin LaVella Kelly, Timothy
Kinzel, Colin McCauley, Lisa Palinkas, Sara Rhodes, David Shimotakahara,
Joey Stefanko and Aidan Wilson to bring this new work to life. 

Please join us in celebrating this really exciting project!
Performances are Friday and Saturday, January 29th & 30th at 7:30 pm.
Tickets are: $7/Adults; $6/Seniors 65+, LCCC Students, Faculty, & Staff;
