Driving the Body Back
Saturday Sept. 25, 2010 at 7:00pm
Adapted for the stage and performed by Karan Founds-Benton
Directed By Michael Sokoloff
The family vault opens upon bootleggers, rumrunners, butchers, tenders of
dogs and the tenderhearted in this exhumation of pioneer vigor and the family connection we all must one day claim.
Swander’s vivid poetry tells the story of one woman’s journey across the Midwest to retrieve her mother’s body and drive it back for burial. On this true-to-life journey, Mary’s godmother has come along to help her with the difficult task and passes the time telling stories. She carves a multi-faceted history of family connectedness through generations of life and death.
Event Partners: Waukee Public Library and the Friends of the Waukee Public Library.
