The Road Ahead at Theater for the New City

THE ROAD AHEAD was inspired by Rod Serling’s classic television series “The Twilight Zone.” A married couple on a nighttime journey is transported by a GPS gone amok to a mysterious destination in place and time. The women are welcomed by a guide, who presents three vignettes, performed by her and her assistants. The vignettes, like traditional fables, portray a moral and a lesson for living life with courage while attempting to right a wrong in the world. They take place at a Jewish wedding in 1920 Eastern Europe, in 1850 U.S. on the Underground Railroad taking slaves to freedom, and in modern day Greenwich Village. Each each contains hope for a better life.
