Marquette Theatre will premiere “In the Cities of Refuge,” Friday, Oct. 4, to Sunday, Oct. 13, at the Evan P. and Marion Helfaer Theatre, 525 N. 13th St.
“In the Cities of Refuge,” a play the company commissioned from New York-based playwright Frank Winter, follows the residents and staff of a small-town homeless shelter as they find themselves caught in the center of a great tempest gathering strength and speed. A storm borne of paranoia, anger and resentment becomes a crucible upon which their loyalties, their beliefs and their commitments will be tested—and not all of them will survive.
This production comes mature content and language warning.
This show will run:
-
Oct. 4-5 and Oct. 10-12 at 7:30 p.m.
-
