Theatre presents Heathen Valley Oct. 21-29
A well-meaning Episcopalian preacher tries to convert an isolated community in 1840s Appalachia.
Pacific University’s Theatre & Dance Department presents Heathen Valley as its fall theatrical production.
Performance dates are Friday through Sunday, Oct. 21-23, and Friday and Saturday, Oct. 28-29 at the Tom Miles Theatre in Warner Hall. Performances begin at 7:30 p.m., except for a 2 p.m. matinee on Sunday, Oct. 23.
The cast and production crew will take part in a question-and-answer session with the audience following the Sunday matinee.
Written by the recently deceased Romulus Linney and directed by Pacific staff member Windy Stein, Heathen Valley centers on a well-meaning Episcopal Bishop who attempts to bring religion to an unspoiled Appalachian community in the mid-19th Century.
General admission is $7. Students with photo identification and senior citizens age 65 and greater gain entry for $5.
