THE LONG CHRISTMAS RIDE HOME
Written by Paula Vogel
Directed by David Charles Goyette
April 23rd – May 18th, 2008
The end of the road is the beginning of a family.
Rebecca, Stephen, and Claire sit in the back seat of their parents Rambler on Christmas day. On a long ride home these three siblings witness an event that will change their family forever. Pulitzer prize winning playwright and longtime Perseverance collaborator Paula Vogel creates a story about love, loss, and the ties that bind. Puppets, music, and a striking sense of storytelling create an evening of theatre you won’t soon forget.
Recommended for mature audiences.
