Where Storms Are Born

July 12–July 23, Nikos Stage

by Harrison David Rivers Directed by Saheem Ali

WORLD PREMIERE

Mourning the loss of her elder son Myles (LeRoy McClain), Bethea (Myra Lucretia Taylor) tries to help her younger son Gideon (Christopher Livingston) through his grief. But as revelations surrounding Myles' incarceration and death emerge, both mother and son must decide whether to fight or let go. With wit and empathy, this play reminds us of the courage and resilience it takes to chart a better way forward for the ones we love. Saheem Ali directs this world premiere play by 2016 WTF Playwright-in-Residence Harrison Davis Rivers.

Where Storms Are Born runs approximately 80 minutes with no intermission.
