Pandora Productions to Stage EDITH CAN SHOOT THINGS AND HIT THEM, Begin. 3/5

Pandora Productions presents Edith Can Shoot Things and Hit Them by A. Rey Pamatmat,a serio-comedy that explores the resilience and wisdom of children who are tossed out or tossed aside.

Edith, 12, and her brother Kenny, 16, are left alone in a remote farmhouse in Middle America. The car outside is almost out of gas and their bank account isn't much better off. Their mother recently died and it has been days since they've heard from their father. Isolated spatially and emotionally from the outside world, they must rely on each other for survival. The bleakness of their situation brightens with the arrival of Kenny's classmate Benji. The trio bands together for support, but the arrival of the adults prompts Edith to shoot and hit something she shouldn't have. A heartbreakingly witty portrait of what it is like to grow up isolated from the norm of society.

Edith Can Shoot Things and Hit Them will be presented March 5, 6, 7, 12, 13, 14 at 7:30 p.m.; March 8 & 15 at 5:30 p.m.; & March 14 at 2:00 p.m. at The Henry Clay Theatre, 604 South Third Street, 3rd Floor, Downtown Louisville. Tickets are on sale now and available for $18 online at http://www.PandoraProds.org, or via phone at 502.216.5502. Day of show tickets available at the door for $20.
