Kent Trumbull Theatre & Modern Methods Brewing Company presents a Sips & Scripts Reading of "Whirligig of Broken Umbrellas" at the Darlene Lounge (145 W. Market Street, Warren OH) on Weds, 2/7 @ 7:30pm. Admission is free and open to all ages (soft drinks also available for those who want them). Three explorers of the unknown - Archie, Celeste, and Zephyr - traverse an endless and cyclical path. As they walk, the three grapple with the forgotten purpose of their journey and the haunting traumas of their individual pasts. Archie, tormented by the loss of his parents to a mysterious cult known only as "The Brotherhood of the Silent Void", wants nothing more than to be lulled to sleep once more by the familiar presence of his parent's silence. Celeste, whose father was bizarrely transformed into a pile of bagels, uses this divine gluten metamorphosis as a means to avoid confronting the even more terrifying truth of her mother's tragic fate. Zephyr, whose entire family has self-immolated, embraces her fiery heritage and finds unapologetic comfort in her strange, predetermined path. "A Whirligig of Broken Umbrellas" is a darkly comedic odyssey through memory, trauma, religion, and the ceaseless search for meaning in a world that eludes understanding. Please join us! Enjoy a brand new play in a relaxed atmosphere and help a writer take that next step toward production!
