Heller Theatre Presents ‘Chasing Manet’
Heller Theatre presents “Chasing Manet” Nov. 2-10 at the Henthorne Performing Arts Center at 4825 S. Quaker Ave. Chasing Manet is described as a whimsical comedy by Tina Howe.
Two women stuck in a Bronx nursing home – one a famous artist now practically blind, the other the Jewish matriarch in the early stages of dementia – combine the resources left to them and plot an escape. The goal? A trip to Paris aboard the QE2.
Directed by Julie Tattershall, cast members include Billie Sue Thompson, Jan Simpson, Ron Friedberg, Roderick Hudson, Ruth Seefeldt, Nicole Lee, Paul Henry, George Romero, Jack Hosley, Sidney Treat, Melissa Childs, Sherry Zyskowski, and Sue Sinor. The show is assistant directed by Stephen Smith and stage managed by Kate McGee.
Performances are Nov. 2, 3, 6, 9, 10 at 7:30 p.m., and Nov. 4 at 2 p.m. Tickets are $10 for adults and $7 for seniors and students. A talk-back with the director and cast will be held after the Saturday evening performance.
“Pay-What-You-Can” night is Tuesday, Nov. 6. Admission is any amount.
