Check out photos of the company meeting the press below!
Welcome to Popcorn Falls, a small American town, whose only claim to fame - their namesake waterfall - has dried up. Now bankrupt, their last chance is a large grant that can only be used if the town produces a play in a week. One big problem: ain't no playhouse. Another problem? Ain't no play.
Led by the Mayor and the local handyman, the enterprising townsfolk try to rise to the challenge and prove that art can change the world.
The production will be directed by celebrated two-time Tony winner Christian Borle in his New York directorial debut. Mr. Borle reunites with playwright/actor James Hindman, having previously collaborated on the premiere of Popcorn Falls at the Riverbank Theatre in Marine City, Michigan.
Featuring Adam Heller (Broadway's It Shoulda Been You, Elf the Musical, Classic Stage Company's Peer Gynt) and Tom Souhrada (Desperate Measures, Broadway's Mary Poppins), Popcorn Falls is a small town with two actors playing over twenty roles in under ninety minutes.
Popcorn Falls will feature scenic design by Timothy Mackabee, lighting design by Jeff Croiter, costume design by Joseph La Corte, and will feature original music composed by Jeffrey Lodin.
