The Smuggler
March 13-22
The Smuggler is a Thriller in Rhyme. It's 2023. Tim Finnegan is an Irish immigrant trying to make it as a writer on Amity, an affluent summer colony in Massachusetts, where tensions flare between the migrant and local communities after a fatal car crash. When he loses his job as a bartender, Tim gets drawn into the dark underbelly of the island. The Smuggler examines how far one man will go to restore his self-respect and asks the question, "What does it mean to be an American citizen today?" of late middle age.
Breadcrumbs

Jennifer Haley
Follow the trail… if you dare. BREADCRUMBS, the haunting, lyrical play by Jennifer Haley, comes to Carnegie Stage for a limited engagement.
A poetic story about the relationship between two complicated women. Alida is a reclusive fiction writer who has been diagnosed with dementia. She begrudgingly must depend upon Beth, a troubled young caregiver who offers to help Alida complete her autobiography. Together they delve into the dark woods of Alida's past, unearthing a tragedy that shatters their notions of language, loneliness, and essential self.
Directed by Ingrid Sonnichsen, and reuniting Carnegie Stage favorites Erika Cuenca and Virginia Wall Gruenert.
