American Sublime

At once intriguing and unsettling, American Sublime examines the insidious ways in which political ideas take hold of ordinary Americans, what recourse we have in voicing our hurt and anger, and what surprising thoughts may lurk beneath the surface of our apparently “Norman Rockwell” neighbors. Todd and Constance have been searching for solace ever since they lost their only son in the attacks of September 11th 2001. Stuck for years in a tragic inertia, they have come to a big city art museum in hope of recruiting a “messenger” to help carry out an act of patriotism. Or is it terrorism? The world premiere of Patricia Lynch’s drama is directed by Seth Rozin and stars Eric Kramer and Cheryl Williams.
