WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
A comedy about four desperate souls all looking for a place to stop running. Stuck together at a country bed and breakfast, none of the group, including the Innkeeper, is entirely stable. Soon the porch becomes a battleground. Out of the darkness a new day emerges, bringing hope and courage to unlikely allies. The Porch, by Kari Floren, is directed by Michael Berry, with choreography by Nancy Lemenager.
