ACT A LADY
by Jordan Harrison
TICKETS or call 1.800.494.8497
In "Act a Lady” Miles is a burly small-towner, with a God-fearing,
accordion playing wife named Dorothy, a broad Midwestern accent and an
aw-shucks manner. But get him into a flouncy wig and a voluminous satin
dress, plunk him in a silly play about romantic rivalries in
Revolutionary France, and a star is born.”

The men of a small Prohibition-era town decide to stage a play. As
the play within this play comes together, gender lines blur, eyebrows
raise, identities explode, and life and art are forever entangled. Act A Lady
is a thoughtful and exuberant Midwestern fable about the woman in every
man, the man in every woman, and the power of theater to uncover both.
