Going to a Place Where You Already Are

April 19, 2017

Going to a Place Where You Already Are
by Bekah Brunstetter

A regional premiere production, presented in Season 12
April 12 – May 6, 2018

Joe says no to the idea of heaven. His wife, Roberta, is starting to wonder. Their granddaughter, Ellie, barely knows how to exist when her iPhone is dead. In this nuanced and deftly funny story, two generations wrestle with love and life well-lived…. and curiosity about what comes next.
