Marquette Theatre to present world premiere of ‘In the Cities of Refuge,’ starting Oct. 4

Marquette Theatre will premiere "In the Cities of Refuge," Friday, Oct. 4, to Sunday, Oct. 13, at the Evan P. and Marion Helfaer Theatre.

"In the Cities of Refuge," a play the company commissioned from New York-based playwright Frank Winter, follows the residents and staff of a small-town homeless shelter as they find themselves caught in the center of a great tempest gathering strength and speed. A storm borne of paranoia, anger and resentment becomes a crucible upon which their loyalties, their beliefs and their commitments will be tested - and not all of them will survive.

This production comes with a mature content and language warning.

This show will run:

• Oct. 4-5 and Oct. 10-12 at 7:30 p.m.
• Oct. 6, 13 at 2:30 p.m.

Tickets are available for purchase through the Marquette Theatre ticketing webpage. For more information about performances, please contact the Helfaer Box Office at (414) 288-7504 or [email protected].
