Kareem Badr Joins the Cast of HEARTLAND
Luna Stage welcomes Kareem Badr to the cast of Heartland, playing April 4-April 28. Badr is featured alongside Brian Corrigan and Lipica Shah in Gabriel Jason Dean's love story set in Nebraska and Afghanistan, directed by Luna Stage Artistic Director Ari Laura Kreith.
Described as "a magical new play about family, grace, and the consequences of defending an American Empire," Heartland is Luna's fourth MainStage play this season. Weaving back and forth through time in an exploration of literature, language, religion, and culture, Heartland delves into the uncertain terrain of love, moral responsibility, and what it truly means to care for one another.
An actor, improviser, and teacher based out of Austin, TX, Badr is co-owner of The Hideout Theatre, and performs and teaches internationally with his improv troupe PGraph.
"I am thrilled that I get to be part of this beautiful show," says Badr. "It's such a rare gift as an actor to get to tell a story that is both global and so intensely personal in scope. I know that this play is going to tug on the heartstrings of our audiences and I truly can't wait to experience it with them."
Tickets are $16-39, and are available at LunaStage.org/Heartland or by calling 973-395-5551. A limited number of premium Opening Night tickets are available for $59, which includes the post-show party with cast and creative team.
