ACT Presents the World Premier of HEART this January.
ACT is pleased to announce that it will present the world premier of HEART by Judd Lear Silverman and directed by Kevin Bennett from January 8 - 24 as an ACT Premier Production at the new Alaska Wild Berry Theatre. The author will travel from New York City to attend the premier.
HEART is a fantastic comedy about middle age and all its unexpected surprises and revelations. Robert is getting an artificial heart implant, doctors are vying for publicity, old scores are getting settled, imaginations are running wild and the best of family values are brought to focus as he hangs on for the grand finale!
HEART was selected for an ACT Premier production from the prestigious 2009 Last Frontier Theater Conference where it received tremendous accolade in the staged reading. ACT is proud to bring this exceptional play and its author to the Anchorage stage.
