Description
Just prior tonight's performance of Shooting Star, Providence Players President, Kevin Harnisch will present the annual Gerry Connolly Scholarship Award. Congressman Connolly's widow, Smitty Connolly, and Supervisor Jimenez will speak. The doors open at 7:00 pm
In this bittersweet romantic comedy, college lovers, Elena Carson and Reed McAllister, are snowed in overnight at a middle-America airport. They have not seen each other for years and are moved by this unexpected reunion. Elena has stayed true to her hippie-ish, counter-culture path, while Reed has gone predictably corporate and conservative.
As the night gives way to laughter, banter, remembrance, and alcohol, Elena and Reed revisit a past that holds more surprises than they imagined – and a present that neither of them could have predicted. Shooting Star explores the middle years of our lives and how we get there.
