Playwrights' Arena is presenting the World Premiere of I GO SOMEWHERE ELSE by Inda Craig-Galván. It is directed by Jon Lawrence Rivera and starring Kevin Coubal, Kita Grayson, Donna Simone Johnson, Inger Tudor and Cheri Lynne Vanden Heuvel.
I GO SOMEWHERE ELSE is aplay about one daughter's fractured memory of her troubled mother, as seen through three different perspectives. When 70s film prom queen Carrie is your role model, your adolescence must really suck. Will Lanny grow into a well-adjusted adult who can forgive her mother's many faults? Or will she burn the whole town to the ground with telekinetic powers? A girl can dream, can't she? It is full of good music, bad memories, and the hope for a better Scott Baio.
The Playwrights' Arena design team for I GO SOMEWHERE ELSE includes: scenic designer Austin Kottkamp, lighting designer Derek Jones, video designer Lily Bartenstein, sound designer Matt Richter, and costume designer Mylette Nora. Christina Bryan is the stage manager. The casting director was Raul Clayton Staggs. The production producer is Henry 'Heno' Fernandez.
