An American Wife coming to Wellesley College Theatre in April

From Wellesley College Theatre: The Wellesley College Theatre Department is proud to present An American Wife, opening Thursday, April 12 @ 7pm in the Ruth Nagel Jones Theatre of Alumnae Hall, Wellesley College

When Frank Flynn returns to rural Pennsylvania after his service in World War II, he doesn’t get quite the welcome he, or his Polish war bride, Stella, had been expecting. Jobs in the coalmine are scarce and the small-minded Irish Catholic community does not know what to make of them. Stella’s painful past binds her new family together in a heartfelt story of perseverance in the face of bitter tragedy.

Under the direction of Nora Hussey, Wellesley College students Angela Bilkic, Chelsea Ennen, Haley Harris, and Susana Puente-Matos join Boston-area theatre professionals Will Bouvier and Will Keary in bringing this story vividly to life. The design team includes: Ken Loewit (Set and Lighting Design), Nancy Stevenson (Costume Design), and George Cooke (Sound Design)
