As wildfires rage closer and closer to a small Ohio college town, the mopey grown children and second wife of a sort-of-mediocre professor are threatened by another kind of crisis: a visit from a family friend that threatens to bring all of their tensions to a towering inferno. Now, each of them will be forced to choose: stay and smolder, or leave and burn? Inspired by the classic family drama Uncle Vanya, FIRES, OHIO updates a beloved story for our painfully absurd present, taking a hilarious and heartfelt look at the natural (and personal) disasters that transform our everyday lives. In addition to winning the 22nd annual Alliance/Kendeda National Graduate Playwriting Competition, FIRES, OHIO has been awarded the Kennedy Center's Paula Vogel Award and the Mark Twain Prize for Comic Playwriting.
The Alliance Theatre has revealed the cast of the upcoming world premiere musical, Like Father. Described as a coming-of-age story set against America’s true-crime obsession, Like Father will run on the Hertz Stage at Alliance Theatre.
On the Hertz Stage at Alliance Theatre, FIRES, OHIO by Beth Hyland and directed by Marissa Wolf is the well-deserved winner of the 22nd Alliance/Kendeda National Graduate Playwriting Competition.
