Iizuka's Polaroid Stories (1997) is a modern adaptation of the Greek myth of Eurydice and Orpheus. Iizuka collapses classical literature and contemporary everyday life by making Minneapolis street kids the main characters of the play instead of mythical gods.[3] The drug dealers, prostitutes, and homeless tell their stories, some real and some complete lies, which together create some sort of truth about the desolate, urban landscape that they find refuge in. Iizuka's work shows that no matter the time period, there is great power in storytelling.[8]
I discovered Blue Ridge while looking online for plays to produce during the pandemic. I came across a zoom reading of the play, with the original Atlantic Theater Company cast from a group called Play Per View. I was immediately captured by the music of the script, and the heart, humor, and humanity that leapt across the page and the internet.
Blue Ridge is the perfect play for our intimate space at Miners Alley Playhouse, and it is an understatement to say how grateful I am for this incredible ensemble cast. They, along with this great script by Abby Rosebrock, have created a truly great evening of intimate, and in-your-face live theatre. Such brave and honest performances are rare these days, so you are all in for a real treat!

SCOTTDONATON: And they were beautiful littlestories. BMWs had starringroles. They played integral partsin the plot lines. And they putthese films on the Internet. It'sadvertising as a piece of entertainment in and of itself that people not onlywill tolerate but will actually go in search of. And BMW sales went dramatically through the roof in theyears after these films aired.
