May 9, 2014, Friday - Ten Thousand Things' Dirt Sticks at Open Book (3 nights)

Location: Open Book, 1011 Washington Avenue South

Dirt Sticks
by Kira Obolensky
directed by Michelle Hensley with music by Peter Vitale

The dead don’t rest with an untold story. After Rose Wand falls to her death, her bones go missing. Now, 20 years later, a mysterious Peddler has come to town selling glimpses of the past and stirring up thoughts about second chances. But before they can imagine a new future, Rose’s son Henry Wand, Mother Spindle and the orphan Miss Laurel have to face the stories—told and untold—that hold them captive. Dirt Sticks was written as part of a three-year playwright residency funded by The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. Produced with assistance from The Playwrights' Center. Featuring Stephen Cartmell, Sun Mee Chomet, H. Adam Harris, Thomasina Petrus and Kimberly Richardson.
