The Coast Starlight follows a young man who, one morning, boards the Coast Starlight, the long-distance train that runs from Los Angeles to Seattle. Hes got a secret that can land him in terrible trouble, and he has roughly one thousand miles to enlist the help of his fellow travelers all of whom are reckoning with their own choices in search of a way forward. Keith Bunins new play is a smart, funny and compassionate story about our capacity for invention and re-invention when life goes off the rails.Developed through the 2018 DNA New Works Series, playwright Keith Burn and director Tyne Rafaeli bring to life a story that Rich Family Artistic Director Christopher Ashley says is an empathetic and humane tribute to all the people who like [Keith], and like me came to California chasing a dream.*Performance times subject to change.
