Remember those childhood family vacations you tried to forget? Those memories will come flooding back as you watch Leaving Iowa
Told in flashback, this hilarious sentimental comedy about a journalist who returns home to Winterset, Iowa to find a final resting place for his father’s ashes is a nostalgic ode to days gone by. As the journalist searches for the perfect spot to scatter the ashes, he relives the summer vacations he spent as boy trapped in the family station wagon en route to uninteresting historical sites with well-meaning but naïve parents and a bickering sibling. With a generous dollop of humor and a heart as big as the Midwest, Leaving Iowa shows us that the journey really is as important as the destination. Once that realization sets in, a lot of life becomes about family, reconciliation, and sacrifice. There are moments when you think ‘What would I give to go back and live part of that journey just one more time?’ The only thing we can do is decide how to live our lives from this point on. That’s the part where our parent’s sacrifices often influence us the most.

BLACK BOX PRODUCTION Stage Coach Players is currently seeking submissions for its new Black Box Production to begin in 2011. This production will be arranged separately from the summer season and will be produced in the spring or fall, depending on schedules. The goal for what will be a yearly production is to present shows that don't fit into the mold of our regular season. If you are interested in directing or producing our first Black Box Production in 2011, please e-mail Tim for guidelines and a submission form. Submissions will be accepted until Sunday, October 17. |
