Why I can't be in Iowa.
chokecherry tells the story of a Los Angeles school teacher, who seeks love
after the break up of her marriage. She moves from LA to South Dakota and
passionately wants to adopt a severely disabled 12 year old student. The
journey takes them down to The Lake of Sorrow, a hot lake which is the
repository of the world's tears. A contemporary take on Dante's "Divine
Comedy." Music by Jennifer Griffin and Michael Roth. The child is never
seen on stage and is represented by a sweater and a wireless mike hooked to
a keyboard which musically distorts her "lovely...voice" (spoken by the
actress playing the teacher)
