MIRACLE TOMATO- written and performed by Jessica Cerullo, featuring local actor Benedicta Bertau, and directed by Ashley Hughes. The play features projections designed by Asli Ayata and photography by David Schulz. MIRACLE TOMATO is a play for one actress and 303 tomatoes. This original and serious comedy is presented by the character Angelina, a waitress, whose journey across America takes her to Hudson, New York where she will impart the history of the tomato to all who will listen. Angelina, the youngest of triplets birthed in the family tomato plot, reveals not only the history of the controversial fruit/vegetable, but also her own, as she employs the help of her identical sisters Valentina, a bio engineer, and Josephina, a food activist. Music and tomato handlers assist in telling the story.
