The City & The Town

The Role - Company Manager

The Show - When Ben returns home to his father's funeral after 13 years away, he is confronted with uncomfortable truths about the past, present and future of the community and the family he grew up in and left behind. Anders Lustgarten's new play is a funny, eclectic, and uniquely political piece of theatre that brings a fresh perspective to some of the political divides and problems facing our country today.
