Seneca Community Players to mount production of Adam Rapp’s Nocturne.
This fall, Seneca Community Players (SCP) will mount acclaimed writer Adam Rapp’s heartbreaking story of a man piecing together the events of a life shattered by his sister’s untimely death. With a keen eye for human relationships and a deft ear for language, Rapp explores the aftershock of this unimaginable event. The play is at once a devastating and elegant portrait of grief and redemption, a gripping dissection of the American dream. Prompting the question of how can we ever move on in the face of tragic loss, Nocturne is sure to send audiences on a cathartic journey of hope and healing.
