The Last Wide Open by Audrey Cefaly
Michigan Premiere
​
A love song in three movements.

Over the course of three brief acts, the lives of weary waitress Lina and immigrant dishwasher Mikolaj play out in parallel universes—each a variation on a theme of longing, chance, and connection. With echoes of fate and flashes of magic in the mundane, this tender, time-bending story asks: what if love is less about destiny, and more about timing? Directed by Diane Hill.

May 22 – June 14, 2026​
Fridays 8:00 pm, Saturdays 3:00 pm and 8:00 pm, Sundays 2:00 pm

Tickets: General $30 / 65 & Over $25 / Students $15
