POETRY, PROSE & A PLAY
The Chase Parkway Players present POETRY, PROSE & A PLAY
A Dramatic Reading of Work by Phil Benevento & Linda Storms Don’t miss this unique theatrical experience created by former Waterbury City Historian and educator Phil Benevento and actress and writer Linda Storms! Performed by The Chase Parkway Players, the first act consists of original poetry and prose. The second act is a dramatic reading of The Opening of a Door, a play by Phil Benevento. Set in Waterbury in the 1990s, Rosa has just returned from a trip to Africa and Southern Europe. She has brought a strange souvenir for her friend and colleague Maria Santi – a gift that can grant a wish. In this original play, we learn of the trials and tribulations of Maria’s family and how this surprising gift may offer a chance to wish for a better life.
