"Balm in Gilead" by Lanford Wilson

The Cape Cod Community College (CCCC) Performing Arts program presents it’s production of Lanford Wilson’s “Balm in Gilead.”

The play is a fascinating piece that tells a loud, collective tale of the loneliness and desperation of the vagrants who frequent Frank’s café, an all-night coffee shop in a rundown section of New York City. The audience is quickly swept into Wilson’s raw world, filled with the denizens who have fallen off the fringes of society. 

Directed by faculty member PJ McKey, the production features CCCC students, faculty and community members and will run November 12, 13, 14, 19, 20, 21 at 8 PM with “Pay What You Can” matinees November 14, 15, 21, 22 at 3 PM. There is a post-show talk-back scheduled for November 15th.

Tickets are $15 for General Admission, $10 for CCCC faculty and staff and $5 for students. They may be obtained by calling the Tilden Arts Center Box office at 508.375.4044,
