There's No Place Like Home

Written in collaboration with the Zamya Theater project, this show adapts "The Wizard of Oz" as a contemporary tale about poverty and homelessness. The story follows a young woman from rural Minnesota, who complains often about others on public assistance until her own home is lost during a catastrophic flood. Forced to move to the city to access public resources, she finds support through an unlikely array of new companions and gains a different understanding of what "homeless" really means.
