About Redtwist Theatre
Redtwist Theatre, formerly Actors Workshop Theatre, embarked upon its
first production as an itinerant company in 1994 with Simon Gray’s Otherwise
Engaged. AWT incorporated as a non-profit 501(c)(3) corporation in May 2001. It
produced five more plays before moving to its current home in the vibrant Bryn
Mawr Historic District of the Edgewater neighborhood in Chicago in the fall of
2002. Redtwist’s first show in Edgewater, Praying Small, opened in September 2003.
It was designated as a Critic’s Choice by the Chicago Reader and was extended two
times by popular demand. Michael Colucci, the founder of Redtwist Theatre, is
the Artistic Director. His producing partner and wife, Jan Ellen Graves, is the
Managing Director. In addition to acting, she directed the critically-acclaimed
The American Clock by Arthur Miller and the Jeff-recommended plays Geezers
and Aura, by company member, Tommy Lee Johnston. Michael’s direction of
All My Sons, Les Liaisons Dangereuses, Three Hotels, That Face, and Broken Glass
was also critically-acclaimed and Jeff-recommended. During Redtwist’s time at
the Bryn Mawr location, its productions have received 50 Jeff nominations and
won 9 Non-Equity Jeff Awards including one for Best Production for Man from
Nebraska in 2011. As of March 1, 2008, AWT’s corporate name officially changed
to Redtwist Theatre. Please visit www.redtwist.org for current information

Welcome from the Artistic Director
D
rama. It’s worth writing about. It’s worth watching. It has three
component parts: players, observers, and a story with conflict.
Theatre is drama. Sport is drama. Politics is drama. Life is drama. The
struggle to stay alive, the challenge to build a life, the need to make a
living, the demands to adapt and change and grow. Every aspect of it is drama.
This record-setting season of the Golden State Warriors was compelling drama.
Can they get more regular-season wins than the Bulls did in their recordsetting season of ‘95-’96? (They did.) Can the Warriors win the NBA title and
thus consummate their dramatic record-breaking dominance? The sports
world is watching.
In politics, now is the summer of our discontent, made glorious drama by two
history-making candidates: One of them, the first female nominee of a major
party, is a fiercely political person who has been reviled and knocked down
by the opposition party for two decades, and refuses to give up. The other is
a fiercely non-political person who is a textbook character study in unbridled
narcissism and refuses to cave in. It will surely be one of the most dramatic
elections in history. The whole world is watching.
The life of Muhammad Ali was riveting drama. From his earliest fights, we
immediately knew he was our own version of Babe Ruth, a mythic figure in
a class by himself. From the first glimpse, it was abundantly clear that he
was going to be on the Mt. Rushmore of athletes (he is). When he became a
conscientious objector, leading to a conviction for draft-evasion and a five
year prison sentence, he didn’t know if he would ever fight again (he did). His
return to the ring for Ali-Frazier I was billed as the Fight of the Century (it was).
When his signature speed was eclipsed by age, he used his agile brain to battle
the mighty brawn of George Foreman in The Rumble in the Jungle (he won).
When he avenged his first defeat in Ali-Frazier II, and then won their rubber
match in The Thrilla in Manila, he dramatically reinvented himself again, and
out-willed a man whose trademark was an indomitable will: Ali answered the
bell in the 15th round; Frazier did not. To this day, it is widely considered the
most dramatic fight in history. His talent was Ruthian, his persona was a fairy
tale, and the second half of his life was filled with deeds focused on peace and
love. A life of iconic drama…and the world paid tribute.
Redtwist does drama. Here’s a sneak preview: next season will include the
play which is arguably the greatest American drama in history, DEATH OF
A SALESMAN, by the greatest American dramatist, Arthur Miller. Most of us
already know how it ends, but it will still be dramatic, especially with our
brilliant leading man, Brian Parry, as Willy Loman. It opens on Saturday,
February 4, the day before the Super Bowl. It’s going to be a weekend of drama
in the dead of winter. SALESMAN is the cornerstone in an all-new season of
dazzling drama at Redtwist. Thank you for coming!
Michael Colucci, Artistic Director

Tickets: $20; Students, Senior, Industry $12
Set in 1966, EROICA is the story of Sally, a woman patriot living in small town, U.S.A., who must
balance her love for her husband, Victor, with her patriotic ideals. He is a high school basketball
coach and has secretly faked a medical condition to avoid the military draft. Victor’s disabled sister,
Grace, is a nun who prays for peace at war protests. We see his anguish as his self-righteous
attitude regarding loyalty, dedication and commitment conflicts with his efforts to avoid the draft.
