2023-02-25 19:30 - 21:00 | John Hand Theater, 7653 E. 1st Place, Denver, CO, 80230, United States
Tiny Beautiful Things
by Nia Vardalos and Cheryl Strayed

February 25 – March 25, 2023
Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30, Sundays at 2:00
Based on the best-selling book by Cheryl Strayed and adapted for the stage by Nia Vardalos, Tiny Beautiful Things personifies the questions and answers that “Sugar” was publishing online from 2010-2012. When the struggling writer was asked to take over the unpaid, anonymous position of advice columnist, Strayed used empathy and her personal experiences to help those seeking guidance for obstacles both large and small. Tiny Beautiful Things is a play about reaching when you’re stuck, healing when you’re broken, and finding the courage to take on the questions which have no answers.

Firehouse Theater: A Shayna Maidel Opens through May 6
2023-04-08 | John Hand Theater, 7653 E. 1st Place, Denver, CO, 80230, United States
A Shayna Maidel
By Barbara Lebow
Directed by Steve Tangedal
April 8 – May 6
Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30, Sundays at 2:00
Two sisters, one a survivor of Nazi concentration camps, the other brought up as an American, meet in New York in 1946 after a separation of almost 20 years. Although born in Poland, Rose, now in her 20s, came to the United States with her father, Mordechai, at the age of four and is now completely “Americanized”. The plan had been for Rose’s mother and sister to join the others, but the sister fell ill with scarlet fever, the mother stayed on to care for her, and soon the rise of the Nazis cut off their escape. Their ordeal in the concentration camps, which only the sister survived, has brought a burden of guilt to the aging Mordechai and deeply mixed feelings as he awaits the arrival of his elder daughter, Lusia, who has, at last, found her way to America. A powerful, haunting and deeply affecting portrait of a family conveying the aftermath of the Holocaust through a poignant, imaginatively conceived examination of one divided family’s experience.
