  • DC Cathro: Throwing Rice

    Intricate relationships, family drama, business, and the upcoming nuptials come to a head. Smooth and distinct voices punctuate the action, and really meaty roles for a wide range of actors. Impressive.

  • Artemisia, A Chicago Theatre: Throwing Rice

    A surprisingly fresh perspective on race, class, and privilege that takes place over the course 12 hours. We're lucky to have this play as one of our Fall Festival Finalists!!
