Play Synopsis
Come
and see these incredible actors perform in this four-act play. Be
Thankful for What You Got is designed to teach us all about life’s ups and downs
and how love, duty, honor, perseverance, kindness and compassion can help us to
understand that there is always a reason to be thankful. The play is set
to sounds of soul, country, rhythm and blues and folk music.
Join
us as a young man struggles with addiction and watch, as a community that he
sets out to hurt, comes together to rally and lift him up.
Journey
with us back to the 60’s, as two young men travel two different paths. One
risks his life and enlists in the Marines, heading off to Vietnam while the
other uses his wealth and privilege to defer the draft; in the end becoming the
most powerful man in the world.
Sit
with us as we take you into the life of a young immigrant mother struggling to
make ends meet, while others around her turn their biases and ridicule into
empathy and understanding.
Finally,
celebrate with us as we ring in the holiday season with a proud dad who was
laid off after 20 years because the candy factory he worked at closed. Watch
how he and his family celebrate the true meaning of the holidays.
