Closed Due to After the Revolution

      

This week is 'Free Night of Theatre " in South Florida and I won 2 tickets to see "After The Revolution"  by Amy Herzog at the Caldwell Theatre this evening--review by weekend.

  

After the Revolution is the story of the brilliant, promising Emma Joseph who proudly
carries the torch of her family's Marxist tradition, devoting her life
to the memory of her grandfather, much revered for refusing to “name
names” during the McCarthy hearings. But when history reveals a shocking
truth about the man himself, the entire family is forced to confront
questions of honesty and allegiance they thought had been resolved. After the Revolution is a bold and moving portrait of an American family, thrown into an
intergenerational tailspin, forced to reconcile a thorny and delicate
legacy. In including it as one of their Top Ten Plays of 2010, The New York Times said, “Ms. Herzog’s smart, engrossing play…strikes a fresh note in being set among a family of exotic beings.”

******************************************************************

"A quarrel between friends, when made up,

adds a new tie to friendship, as experience shows

that the callosity formed around a broken bone

makes it stronger than before."

St. Francis de Sales, 1567-1622  French Theologian
