Father

In FATHER, by Frederick Mensch, Peter Snowden and his older sister Vicki are the only mourners at the wake of their estranged and abusive father, Robert. They share memories of an unhappy childhood, but are forced to confront the possibility that their father may have changed his ways when they learn of his unlikely, late-in-life friendship with a young, amiable funeral home director, David Kennedy. An unsentimental family drama in the Tennessee Williams tradition, FATHER explores themes of redemption, forgiveness, and the possibility of change. FATHER is the 2013 winner of the Tennessee Williams One-Act Playwriting Competition.

Performances will take place in the Lab Theatre in the UNO Performing Arts Center, and will run February 11th through February 15th at 7:30pm, and Sunday February 16th at 2:30pm.
FATHER is directed by Jenny L. Billot and features an all-student cast: David Brown, Meghan Shea, and Evan Eyer. This play also features the work of Kevin Griffith (Set Design); Tony French (Costume Design); Shelby Thompkins (Lighting Designer); Timothy Moseley (Stage Manager).
