Event Details
Based on the Book by Cheryl Strayed
Adapted for the Stage by Nia Vardalos
Directed by 21-Time Breakthrough Artist Priscilla Ju
Featuring 26-Time Breakthrough Artist Heidi Maretz as “Sugar”
When a struggling writer is asked to take over an unpaid position answering letters for an anonymous advice column, she uses empathy and her personal experiences to help those facing breakthroughs and obstacles both large and small. Presented at Breakthrough Workshop Theatre for the 3rd consecutive year and as BWT’s milestone 75th Project, TINY BEAUTIFUL THINGS uses real letters from “Dear Sugar” to create a play about reaching when you’re stuck, healing when you’re broken, and finding the courage to take on the questions which have no answers.
**Due to adult themes and language, this play is recommended for MATURE AUDIENCES.**
This “Breakthrough Workshop” (staged reading) is being presented free of charge for one performance only at the beautiful La Jolla Riford Library. More information about BWT can be found at www.breakthroughworkshop.org or by following @breakthroughworkshop on Instagram, Facebook and YouTube.
