Original Work: Where the Heart Is (Reader's Theatre)

June 3

By: Stephen Marsh

Director: Bob Trisolini

Written by Brevard playwright Stephen Marsh, Where the Heart Is tells the story of Maria Shaughnessy, who runs an unofficial boarding house that’s home to several elders. All goes well until… Presented in a reader's theater format, actors don't memorize scripts but read them to the audience while using their voices and upper bodies to convey the roles they are playing. Actors also use vocal and facial expressions, as well as hand and arm movements.

Hendersonville Theatre is dedicated to the development of local playwrights, and to the production of innovative new work. Join us as we present our first reader's theatre developed here in Hendersonville. This world premiere of a new play has been specifically chosen for our audience and our region.
