Redtwist Theatre Presents MAN FROM NEBRASKA 3/26

By:

Man from Nebraska by Tracy Letts opens at Redtwist Theatre on Saturday, March 26, at 3:00pm

Directed by Andrew Jessop,
Associate Artistic Director, Redtwist Theatre

Guest artist and Jeff-nominee, Chuck Spencer, as the title character, and Redtwist leading lady, Jan Ellen Graves, spearhead a stellar cast in this Pulitzer-finalist by Tracy Letts.

The Play
Have you ever lost faith in anything dear to you...your family, career, spouse, leaders, ethics, God? What happens when the soul unravels and a man heads for the hills? Whether from a crisis of faith or just a plain old mid-life crisis, rock-solid Midwesterner, Ken Carpenter, leaves his loving wife and good job to find some answers in the bohemian underbelly of hipster London...and life will never be the same.

Chuck Spencer (Ken Carpenter); Jan Ellen Graves (Nancy Carpenter); Marssie Mencotti (Cammie Carpenter); Julie Dahlinger (Ashley Kohl); Michael Sherwin (Reverend Todd); Jane deLaubenfels (Pat Monday); Adrian Snow (Tamyra); Sam Perry (Bud Todd); Andrew Pond (Harry)
