1/23/2017

0 Comments

 
Arthur Przybyszewski (James Houska) owns a decrepit donut shop in the uptown neighborhood of Chicago. Franco Wicks (Daniel Bonner), a black teenager who is his only employee, wants to change the shop for the better. This comedy-drama by Tony Award and Pulitzer Prize-winning author Tracy Letts (August: Osage County, Man from Nebraska) explores the challenges of embracing the past and the redemptive power of friendship. 

Directed by Amy Rickett, Superior Donuts brings a North Chicago donut shop to life with all of the quirks of a small, family-owned business, including an eclectic band of regulars. This play contains adult language and mature situations. Doak Bloss, Erin Hoffman, Ndegwa McCloud, Eve Davidson, Angela Dawe, Jeff Magnuson and Grant Jason round out this cast.  Dates:  February 16-19 and 23-26, 2017
Times: Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m., Sundays at 2 p.m. 
Ticket Prices: $12 regular price, $10 for seniors 55+ or students
Location: Riverwalk Theatre, 228 Museum Drive, Lansing, MI 48933.
