Stops Along the Road

Synopsis:
Stops along the Road consists of three separate acts, in which a second, smaller stage is mounted upon the existing stage. the second stage will enable the audience to envision characters interacting backstage and onstage during a performance. each act takes place in a unique situation and tells a story based on political themes from America's recent past such as equality of women's rights, the current economic crisis, and the need for hope and leadership. the performance will feature new music by composer and pianist arthur abrams. In one act, it has children destroying their own play about reproductive rights and world peace. In a second, it playfully casts President Obama as Moses. In another, it casts a group of actors as iconic Manhattan superstructures, including one as "the ghost of the World Trade Center."
