The Human Race Theatre Company opens the season with a play by Cleveland-based playwright George Brant – Grounded – playing September 8-25, 2022 at the Loft Theatre.  This gripping one-woman drama finds a fighter pilot caught between duty to her country and motherhood.

While it often is the focus of news reports and television talk shows, raising transgender children is rarely the subject of a play.  Playwright Elyzabeth Gregory Wilder freely admitted “the stories I find the most compelling are often stories that force me to step out of my comfort zone and look at a subject through a new lens.”

The Human Race Theatre Company continues its 35th year with Chelsea Marcantel's award-winning play Airness, the story of a young guitar player's introduction to the unique and intense world of competitive air guitar.  But even more, it's about being true to yourself, letting go of your inhibitions, accepting people for who they are and finding the Rockstar locked deep inside yourself. 

The Human Race Theatre Company continues its 35th year with a look at one of Hollywood’s most famous-and infamous--actresses, Tallulah Bankhead.
