Theatre in the Round Presents INDEPENDENCE, Opening Today
Theatre in the Round Players (TRP) continues its 60th Anniversary Season as the longest-running theatre in Minneapolis with Lee Blessing's Independence in weekend performances during January.
Minnesota playwright Lee Blessing creates a vivid, tender and often funny family portrait. An emergency reunites three sisters -- Kess, a gay professor living in Minneapolis, the artsy wild child Sherry, and homebody Jo -- in their hometown of Independence, Iowa, to care for their mother. But failing health has not softened the manipulative Evelyn, forcing each woman to come to terms with their bond as daughters -- and sisters.
Leah Cooper directs a cast featuring Rachel Austin, Emily Dussault, Rachel Flynn, and Jean Wolff. Sets are designed by James Davis, costumes by Alice Fredrickson, and lighting by Peter W. Mitchell.
An audience discussion with members of the company will follow the matinee performance on Sunday, January 22nd.
Tickets are $22. For information, call the theatre's box office at 612-333-3010 or visit its website atwww.TheatreintheRound.org.
