Mary-Arrchie Theatre Co. Presents THE RANT, 2/18-3/28
Mary Arrchie Theatre Co. will be continuing its season of midwest premieres with THE RANT by Andrew Case, opening this Thursday Feb 18th at Angel Island.THE RANT is a gripping drama exploring racial bias and the perilous path to justice. When an African-American autistic boy is fatally wounded by police in the Bronx, an investigator sets out to expose the officer's crime only to learn that the truth itself is a sort of bias. She must wade through prejudice, deceit, and a volley of anonymous threats to find where culpability and truth really lie.
THE RANT is based on Andrew Case's eight years of experience working on police misconduct issues for the City of New York. He served as the chief spokesman and policy officer for the Civilian Complaint Review Board, which investigates over 5,000 complaints every year against NYPD officers.
The Rant was originally developed at PlayPenn and has been produced at the New Theatre in Miami (Carbonell nomination, best new play), InterAct Theatre in Philadelphia (Barrymore nomination, best new play), and New Jersey Repertory Theatre in Long Branch, New Jersey. With direction by Sharon Evans, the Chicago cast includes: Emanueal Buckley (Simmons), Earl Pastko (Stern), Lindsey Pearlman (Mahanaz), and Shariba Rivers (Reeves).
