Unicorn Theatre's EVERYDAY RAPTURE Begins Previews Tonight, 5/16

A semi-autobiographical musical stage memoir by Sherie Rene Scott, this is the story of a woman’s "psycho-sexual-spiritual journey that separates her mostly Mennonite past from her mostly Manhattan future.  She travels from Topeka, Kansas to New York City; with a disturbing detour through YouTube.  Filled with familiar tunes, this musical follows Sherie’s road to Broadway semi-stardom."  This is the first production in the nation since Sherie premiered the show on Broadway and the first production without Sherie as the star.

Jerry Jay Cranford directs this piece which features Katie Gilchrist as Sherie Rene Scott with Chioma Anyanwu and Christina Burton as The Mennonettes and Bryan LaFave as Broadwayislove09.
