About Hollywood Nebraska
Two fortysomething actresses have returned to their once-thriving hometown in rural Nebraska. Jane is in from Los Angeles to check on her ailing mom, Alma. Andrea’s back from New York City to bury her father. Distracted by two charismatic local men – a handsome widower and a rough-and-ready laborer – the old friends navigate complicated feelings about their careers, love and loss. Hollywood, Nebraska is a hope-filled, tears-and-laughter comedy about small towns and big dreams, parents and children, the urge to be creative, and the ache – and joy – of coming home.
Mauritius premiered on Broadway at the Biltmore Theatre on October 4, 2007. Directed by Doug Hughes, the production featured F. Murray Abraham, Dylan Baker, Bobby Cannavale, Katie Finneran and Alison Pill.
Chamberlayne Actors Theatre
In spring of 1964, a group of neighbors met at the new North Chamberlayne Civic Association (NCCA) building and decided they wanted to form a community theatre group. They had no idea that they were planting the seeds for what is now a well-regarded professional theatre that has endured for 60 years.
