Photo Flash: First Look at Victor Mack, Dana Millican and More in Artists Rep's ITHAKA
How long does the battle continue after a soldier returns home? Artists Repertory Theatre is honored to present Andrea Stolowitz's challenging new play, Ithaka, with extensive enrichment programming. Ithaka runs May 28 through June 30 on the Morrison Stage, 1515 SW Morrison, Portland, OR. BroadwayWorld has a first look below.
With this newly commissioned play, Oregon playwright Andrea Stolowitz examines the issues involved with coming home from war, for both soldiers and their families. Marine Captain Elaine Edwards has just returned from her latest tour in Afghanistan but this time things are different - home doesn't feel right and nothing makes sense. After a blow-up fight with her husband propels her to skip town, she undertakes an Odyssean journey through the American landscape battling her demons, trying to find her way home.
Ithaka, written by Andrea Stolowitz and directed by Gemma Whelan, features Dana Millican, Victor Mack, Paul Angelo, Danielle Purdy, Valerie Stevens, with scenic design by Tal Sanders.
Performance Dates: May 28-June 30, Tuesday through Sunday at 7:30pm, Sunday at 2:00pm; Wednesday matinee at 11:00am on June 19. Opening Night is Friday, May 31. All shows run at Artists Repertory Theatre's Morrison Stage (15th & Morrison St.)
Tickets: $25-$50. Box Office: 503.241.1278 or www.artistsrep.org. On the web: Website, Facebook, Twitter.
