TheaterWorks and the City of Peoria welcomes Traces in the Wind to the Peoria Center for the Performing Arts.
The City of Peoria in collaboration with TheaterWorks, Live! announces a very special enagement, Traces in the Wind, playing on January 20 for one performance only in the Gyder Theater at The Peoria Center for the Performing Arts.
Traces in the Wind is a tribute to the strength and courage of three extraordinary women who survived the Holocaust through the power of the arts. This musical staged reading uncovers stories of betrayal, humiliation, and incarceration while asserting the spiritual resistance that the arts can provide. The performers are theatre graduates of The School of Creative and Performing Arts at Stephens College in Columbia, MO. The production, created by Gail Humphries Mardirosian, Dean, features an original score by Tom Andes, a music professor in the School. Over the past two years, this performance has evolved and toured, with a debut performance at the International Psychoanalytical Conference and a performance at the Embassy of The Czech Republic in Washington D.C. Traces in the Wind will enlighten and educate its audiences, preserving the legacy of remarkable women.
The cast, featuring performers from Missouri, Kansas, Minnesota and Arizona, includes: Clara Bentz (Rosie Glazer), Lauren Hardcastle (Eva Kavanova) and Catherine Moore (Charlotte Delbo) with narration by Jayme Brown. Also featured is Tom Andes, performing his original score, and Sara Crosby who will lead the audience in a talk-back session following the performance.
Traces in the Wind will play in the Gyder theater January 20 at 2:00pm. Single tickets are $7 and are available online at http://theaterworks.org/calendar/traces-in-the-wind/ or by calling the box office at 623-815-7930.
