Photo Flash: FIRE IN DREAMLAND Begins Tonight as Part of KC Rep's OriginKC New Works Festival

FIRE IN DREAMLAND, written by Rinne Groff and directed by Marissa Wolf, makes its World Premiere at Kansas City Repertory Theatre's OriginKC New Works Festival, opening tonight, April 30 on the Copaken Stage.

Celebrated playwright Rinne Groff (Saved!, Compulsion), brings us the story of a modern-day young woman named Kate who is seduced by the vision of a Dutch filmmaker obsessed with the tragic 1911 fire on Coney Island. Past and present converge against a destructive backdrop, and when Kate finally sees the illusion of filmmaking - and of life with an inattentive lover - she rediscovers her ambitions as an independent woman.
