Tremont’s little convergence-continuum makes up in adventurous spirit what it lacks in size. (Its home, the Liminis, holds only 40-50 people.) It often brings to town plays that haven’t been seen here previously, and it takes on offbeat scripts, some of them sucessful, some not — but it’s always willing to take a risk.
Its next production, The Grown-Up, written by Pulitzer Prize finalist Jordan Harrison, premiered at Louisville’s 2014 Humana Festival at Actor’s Theatre. Reviews of previous performances have described the script as “wonderful,” so this one could be a winner.
The synopsis says, “Ten year old Kai is given a magical crystal door-knob by his grandfather that enables him to travel through space and time to see future events in his life. The further along he goes, the less he feels like he’s seeing into his future, but more that he is living life as most people do — all too quickly.”
The Grown-Up opens Friday, October 13 and runs Thursday-Saturday at 8pm, through Saturday November 4. Get information and tickets at convergence-continuum.org.
