Burning in the Night at Theater Works

Theater Works proudly presents the world premiere of a play based on the memoirs of Dale Wasserman, the renowned author of Man of La Mancha and the play One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest. Dale rode the rails as in itinerant laborer – a hobo, not a bum – as a teenager during the Great Depression. Acclaimed Arizona playwright Richard Warren has turned Dale’s memory of those crazy-free wanderings into a funny and moving evening of theatre, seasoned with some of the great American folk songs of the rails and the road. Be part of the launching of a lovely new play – right here in the shadow of the “Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe”.
