A Thread of Golden Ashes, Wallace Theater, Lewis Arts Complex
Our story starts on Earth. An empty home, fractured in the wake of loss. Two once-close cousins return on the anniversary of their father-figure’s death, only to unexpectedly encounter each other instead. Moving forward proves difficult for everyone as feelings of betrayal, misunderstanding, and heartache surge to the surface, haunted by unresolved grief. Turn the page to Irridia. A fantastical kingdom, shattered after the deaths of its sovereigns. In the midst of their own grief, two royal siblings strive to fulfill the oaths made to their parents: protect Irridia and protect one another. But as one transforms into someone unrecognizable, the kingdom is left wondering: can things really return to be as they once were? In A Thread of Golden Ashes, these two worlds collide as the story a father left behind for his family spills into the living room. This new play by senior Le’Naya Wilkerson explores how we deal with loss, how families learn to meet each other where they are, and how our lost loved ones might stay with us in surprising ways. Directed by senior Wasif Sami with lighting design by Wilkerson.\ Performances are free and open to the public; advance tickets required.

Steel Magnolias, The Musical @Kelsey Theatre
Steel Magnolias explores the relationships between a tight-knit group of Louisiana southern ladies who gather in Truvy’s small-town beauty parlor, celebrating the milestones in each other’s lives. Filled with hilarious repartee and humorously acerbic verbal lacerations, the play deepens when the spunky Shelby (who is diabetic) contradicts her doctor’s advice and risks pregnancy. Steel Magnolias exemplifies the universal and unconditional strengths of sisterhood, resilience, and love. $22/$20 PG Kelsey Theatre, 1200 Old Trenton Road, West Windsor NJ, 08550 609-570-3333
