Touching
and Humorous Play Examines the True Meaning of Family and Friends
Picture this: an old-world
grandmother, new-age grandson and a tiny New York apartment – what
could possibly go wrong? Finalist for the 2013 Pulitzer Prize for
Drama and Time Magazine’s number one Play or
Musical of 2012, 4000 Miles rolls into
Lawrenceville’s Aurora Theatre February
12 -March 1, 2015! Dynamic writer Amy Herzog uses her own
feisty grandmother’s experiences and stories to shape the character
of elderly Vera in this altogether sensitive and comical story.
Audiences are invited to take a trip to New York City’s Greenwich
Village and experience the implausible, yet beautiful relationship of
two characters, as they embark on a journey to find their place in
today’s world.
“4000
Miles is
a rich, satisfying play filled with humorous moments in an unlikely
setting,” says Aurora Producing Artistic Director Anthony
Rodriguez. “Vera and Leo’s bond is deeply touching and serves as
a reminder to all of us that we need to stop and take time to cherish
life’s little moments.”
When
Leo, the 21- year-old, free- spirited grandson, endures the heart
wrenching loss of his best friend, while on a cross-country bike
trip, he finds himself feeling empty and alone. While problems with
his parents and girlfriend keep multiplying, he realizes he has
nowhere to turn but to his lively 91-year-old grandmother, Vera, for
support and a place to temporarily bunk. Throughout the course of
their newfound roommate situation, the two irritate, baffle and
ultimately find themselves vastly more similar than either expected.
Under
the direction of the talented Alexander Greenfield the innovative
team of Jason Sherwood (set), April Brown (costumes), Tara O’Neill
(lights), Heather Schroeder (props) and Daniel Pope (sound) take
audiences into the heart of the hustle and bustle of New York City.
The cast is led by Suzi Award-winner and seven-time nominee Mary Lynn
Owen as Vera. The cast also includes Barrett Doyle as Leo and Kelly
Criss as Leo’s estranged girlfriend Bec. In the role of Amanda is
Shelli Delgado, a recent graduate of the 2014 Aurora Theatre
Apprentice Company.
