TWO MILE HOLLOW


by LEAH NANAKO WINKLER
directed by RANDY REYES

February 16 - March 4, 2018

 

A CO-PRODUCTION WITH MIXED BLOOD THEATRE

A parody coupled with moments of disorienting sincerity, Two Mile Hollow explores the dysfunctional family with brutality, awe and compassion. When the Donnellys gather for a weekend in the country to hash out belongings from their recently sold estate, an emotional storm breaks inside while a literal storm brews outside. As this family of famous, longing-to-be-famous, and kind-of-a-mess-but-totally-Caucasian characters come together with their personal assistant, Charlotte, some really really complicated and totally unique secrets are revealed (over white wine).
