Part I: August Snow and Night Dance
A Family Trilogy
by Reynolds Price
directed by Preston Lane
February 12 – March 17, 2012
Come home.
August 1937. One year into their troubled marriage, Taw Avery gives her husband, Neal, an ultimatum – he must put his past behind him or she will leave him forever. With less than a day to decide, they each make a journey of self discovery to find the meaning of commitment and sacrifice. Their story continues at the end of World War II. The battle may be over, but the loss of lives and dreams continues in its wake. Neal and Taw must carry on, searching for a way to keep hope and love at the heart of their family.
The New Music trilogy is presented in collaboration with Greensboro Public Library's "One City, One Author" program.
