Ethan's People

Tickets and Information

On the day of an American Tragedy, a young boy composes a nursery rhyme, and it is these words that form the centerpiece of Ethan's People, a play that explores the slow rebuilding of lives in the wake of unspeakable horror. On an ordinary Tuesday, the lives of John and Gwen and Sam and Janice are shattered, and over the course of the next few months, the return to "normalcy" is both a determined quest, a dream deferred and an unreachable thing. "Ethan's People" is about the delicacy of flowers in a back yard, revelations in a hotel room, a boy's little poem and grief, anger, denial and acceptance -- emotions that we all endure, grow from and live through.
