REACH/RECOVER by Christopher Patrick Allen at Now & Then Creative Company

Stalled in a long-distance relationship, astronomy grad student Sam becomes glued to a phone that refuses to ring. As they struggle to close the distance, a web of connections unfolds around them, examining all the different relationships we find ourselves in and how easily they fall apart. Using an intertwining narrative and six original songs, this new musical examines the moment just before someone slips away. Is it better to hold on or to let them go? - Reach/Recover features a fantastic team of actors, including: Lauren McKay, Natalie Andrews, Devon Mahon, Dawn Rendell, Anna Katen, Jordan Blanton, and Erin Cot; the workshop is directed by Laughing Pig Theatre Artistic Director Taylor Moschetti. - As a part of Now & Then's #newworkshop, audiences can expect a concert reading, staged reading (movement with scripts in hand), or a combination of both as the play is still being developed throughout the workshop week.
