TV: First Look at Highlights of MIRACLE ON SOUTH DIVISION STREET at Theatre at the Center

From the urban streets of Buffalo, NY's East Side, comes the story of the working-class Nowak family as they cope with tested faith and life's surprises. Theatre at the Center, 1040 Ridge Road, Munster, Indiana, continues their 2014 season of premieres with Tom Dudzick's MIRACLE ON SOUTH DIVISION STREET, running from May 1 through June 1. BroadwayWorld has a first look at highlights below!

MIRACLE ON SOUTH DIVISION STREET follows Mother Clara Nowak (Marilynn Bogetich) and her three grown children: Jimmy (Joe Popp), a garbage collector, Bev (Erin Grennan), a ketchup bottler, and Ruth (Adria Dawn), who would be a struggling actress if she could only get a part. In 1943, Clara's father had a vision of peace and the Blessed Mother while working in the family barbershop. To commemorate this miracle, he built a twenty-foot shrine of the Blessed Mother, which quickly became a beacon of hope to the neighbors and gave prestige to the family as it grew into popularity across the country.

MIRACLE ON SOUTH DIVISION STREET's production team, led by Artistic Director William Pullinsi, includes Set Designer Jeff Bauer, Lighting Designer Shelley Strasser-Holland, Sound Designer Barry G. Funderburg, Props Designer Jessie Howe and Costume Designer Brenda Winstead. The Stage Manager is Rebecca Green and TATC's General Manager is Richard Friedman.
