A Twist of Water

A Twist of Water

Mercury Theater
3745 N. Southport Ave Chicago

After a sold out run at Theatre Wit, A Twist of Water has transfered to the Mercury Theaer. A Twist of Water features Stef Tovar as Noah, a gay, widowed history teacher, raising his adopted African-American daughter Jira (Falashay Pearson) alone in the wake of his husband’s death in a car accident. When Jira decides that she wants to seek out her birth mother, Noah’s already grief-stricken and strained relationship with his child is pressed to the breaking point. As he struggles to hold on to and rebuild his family, a burgeoning new romance with a younger man (Alex Hugh Brown) serves to complicate matters, but may also be a saving grace.

Presented by Route 66 Theatre Company
