Playwrights' Center (2301 E. Franklin Avenue East Minneapolis, MN 55406)

Full Price:: $20.00 - $22.00

Our Price:: $10.00 - $11.00*

Minneapolis' Frank Theatre presents Obie Award-winning Caridad Svich's new play The Way of Water. Set in the heart of the devastating aftermath of BP's recent environmental disaster, it's the story of four people making do as best they can, trying to stay afloat in the land of many compromised dreams, as the devastation of a health and environmental crisis in the U.S. Gulf plays out on a grand human scale. It takes a close look at poverty in America, rumors versus the truth, the role of the media, and the quest for an honorable life. The Way of Water looks behind the slickly produced public relations commercials touting how well the Gulf Coast is doing since the clean-up.
