HARD TIMES
September 19 - December 15, 2002
Ruth Page Center for the Arts
By Charles Dickens
Adapted and Directed by Ensemble Member Heidi Stillman
For these times.
Integrating circus feats of daring, pointed social commentary, and unforgettable Dickensian characters, this original, inspired adaptation celebrates the power of the imagination to transform lives stunted by pragmatism and conformity, Hard Times showcases the powerful storytelling and heart-stopping imagery that has become the Lookingglass trademark.
Featuring Ensemble Members Eva Barr, David Catlin, Raymond Fox, and Philip R. Smith, with Tony Hernandez, Lauren Hirte, Louise Lamson, Joyce Piven, Barbara Robertson, Joe Sikora, and Troy West.
