BREAKDOWN

One of the most acclaimed and provocative theatre artists of our time, Tony and Pulitzer Prize nominee Anna Deavere Smith (Let Me Down Easy; “Nurse Jackie”), shares her “most ambitious and powerful work to date” (Variety). Incredibly timely and moving, Notes from the Field depicts the personal accounts of individuals caught in America’s school-to-prison pipeline as they navigate inequities in their communities. Based on interviews with over 250 people living and working within a challenged system, Notes shines a light on a lost generation of American youth.

NOTE: This is the regional premiere and the play was originally done as a one-person show, but we may cast up to four actors per the playwright's suggestion.

1: Female, African American, aged 30-60, plays multiple roles

2: Male, African American, aged 30-60, plays multiple roles

3: Female, Native American, aged 30-60, plays multiple roles
