When murder roars through a small Missouri town, Ruth Hoch begins her own quest to find truth and honesty amid small town jealousies, religion, greed and lies. This tornado of a play propels you through its events like a page-turning mystery.

Lanford Wilson is an American playwright whose plays are known for experimental staging, simultaneous character dialogue, and postponed character exposition. In 1980 Wilson won a Pulitzer Prize for his play Talley Folly (1979). Other plays include Balm in Gilead (1965), The Rimers of Eldritch (1967), The Great Nebula in Orion (1971), The Mound Builders (1975), and Angels Fall (1982).

This production of Lanford Wilson's Book of Days will be directed by Centenary Stage Company's own Stephen Davis. Davis serves as CSC's Director of Shakesperience, NJ and professor for the Centenary University Theatre Department. Previously Davis has directed NextStage Repertory's productions of SWEAT, Marisol, Reasons to be Pretty, and 1984. This production features Centenary University students Megan Moran, James Brandes, Christina Polichetti, Connor McCrea, Amanda Ackerman, Kylah Wilson, Christopher Hara, Kaitlyn Holmes, Jamir Freeman, Cody Jackson, Serena Buchan, Jeremiah Caviston, Alexandra Koch, Amanda Tossman, Kai Vialva, and Christopher Rice. This production further serves as the thesis of two Centenary University Theatre Department seniors, Serena Buchan and Megan Moran. Both seniors started at Centenary University as freshman and will be working on Book of Days as a culmination of their academic careers.

NEXTstage Repertory is the all-student performance division of Centenary University's Theatre Department.
