Mt Vernon/Lisbon Community Theatre: “Roots: A New Play Festival”
The Mount Vernon/Lisbon Community Theatre presents “Roots: A New Play Festival.”
This year’s new play festival centers around the theme of Roots. This idea has been expressed in numerous ways from the roots of evil to familial roots to the foundations of community theatre itself. With ten different plays from ten different local Eastern Iowa writers, Roots: A New Play Festival is sure to be grounded in great midwestern theatre and stem plenty of theatrical ingenuity.
