This weekend is your last chance to see Theater One’s production of Welcome Home, Jenny Sutter with performances Friday, March 22 and Saturday, March 23 at 8 p.m. and Sunday, March 24 at 2 p.m. in the UUSS Main Hall.  No reservations are necessary. Tickets available at the door: $15 General Admission, $13 for Seniors, Students, and SARTA members.  The play premiered at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival in 2008.

This production is directed by long-time UUSS members Lisa Erwin and Assistant Director Michael Erwin. The lead is played by local musician Sené Goss, who was featured on ABC10 and recently sang at the UUSS service. In addition to Sené, the talented cast includes several actors familiar to Theater One audiences: Shane Burrows, Stephen Watson, Ken Watkins, and Voress Franklin.

Written by acclaimed playwright Julie Marie Myatt, Welcome Home, Jenny Sutter is an intense look at returning home from war and is a contemporary story of personal trauma, recovery and acceptance. Upon her return to Southern California from a difficult tour of duty in Iraq, wounded Marine Sergeant Jenny Sutter finds herself in Slab City, sometimes known as, “The Last Free Place on Earth.” The eccentric inhabitants attempt to connect with her to help her return to her previous life. An edgy and poignant drama, Welcome Home, Jenny Sutter brings moving insight to the universally human themes of loss and healing, particularly as they relate to our veterans.

Don’t miss it!
