Book of Days

Written by Lanford Wilson

Performance dates: February 21 - March 14, 2020

When murder roars through a small Missouri town, Ruth Hoch begins a quest to find truth - and honesty - in a storm of small town jealousies, religion, greed, and lies. Landford Wilson's Book of Days is reminiscent of Our Town while propelling you through its events with a page-turning mystery, and a cast of diverse and recognizable characters proving once and for all that there are no small roles in life. 

Tickets are available now!
