Photo Flash: First Look at the World Premiere of EROICA at Redtwist Theatre

By:

Azusa Productions, in association with Redtwist Theatre, is pleased to present the world premiere of the touching family drama EROICA, by David Alex, directed by Maggie Speer, playing today, July 9, through August, 2016 at Redtwist Theatre, 1044 W. Bryn Mawr in Chicago. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!

EROICA features Felipe Carrasco, Sarah Koerner, Sara Pavlak McGuire and Garrett Young.

EROICA follows a family in small town U.S.A. during the Vietnam War. It is a timely play dealing with timeless issues. "Eroica explores the nature of faith, commitment and betrayal," comments playwright David Alex. "Life is full of choices: love, honor, patriotism and lies. Eroica asks, 'what happens when political and social questions conflict with certainties of the heart?'"

EROICA was named a Finalist in the American Theatre Co-op, Reva Shiner and Coldwater (Michigan) Playwriting Competitions, Semi-Finalist in the Mill Mountain (Virginia) Playwriting and Reverie Productions (New York) competitions. It was given a workshop by NSP Productions in Elgin, Illinois.

The production team for EROICA includes: Elyse Balogh (scenic design), Becca Duff (costume design), Matt Reich (sound design) and Jessica Banaszak (stage manager).

Tickets for EROICA are currently available at dime.io or in person at the Redtwist Theatre Box Office.
