This is a staged reading of Brad Erickson’s American Dream. Mark Routhier directs. Discussion with the playwright, the director and actors will follow the reading so the audience can express opinions and ask questions.
The USA-Mexico border plays a pervasive role in American Dream, as it proves a barrier between an American language student and his teacher, challenges his ex-wife who has issues with letting go, and mobilizes a Minute Man and his pothead nephew.CAST Michael Keys Hall* Julia McNeal* Kate Fox Marcom Jack Powell* Alex Ross Adrian Cervantes Mejia Rowan Brooks**Member Actors Equity Union Playwrights’ Lab is the new play development program of 142 Throckmorton Theatre.
