[Braelin Andrzejewski]

The Western Reserve PlayhouseProudly Presents Our $5 Bucks Series: THE
KENTUCKY CYCLEPt. 1: Masters of the TradeWritten by Robert SchenkkanDirected
by Victoria Kirgesner-Hunsicker  Sunday, March 1

2:00PM

This sweeping epic of three families in eastern Kentucky spans 200 years of
American history from 1775 to 1975. Fast-paced and finely drawn,
Schenkkan's stunning six-hour, nine-play cycle examines the myths of the
American past which have created, for better or for worse, the country we
are today. The cycle is epic in style when the plays are performed
together, yet each individual play tells a powerful story on its own.

1775. Michael Rowen, an indentured servant from Ireland, watched his wife
and children massacred by Indians. Determined to survive in the hostile
wilderness of Eastern Kentucky, he swindles an old trapper, murders an
innocent boy and sets up gun trade with the Indians. They give him land he
craves with a warning that it is haunted; in return, Rowen promises more
gunpowder and gives them blankets tainted with smallpox. Clutching a gold
watch stolen from the dead trapper, Rowen sets in motion a legacy of
corruption that will curse his valley and its people for generations to
come.
