Meet three women on their American journey of discovery. Sit for a while in the Continental Garage with Odessa as she waits for her car repairs, and learn why she desperately needs to get home. Meet Rachael, a lawyer in a small New England town trying to help her brother and struggling with century’s old Indian mores. And listen to Janice, a Taiwanese-American store clerk who gabs incessantly about everything from great musicals to her hopes for the future.
Smart, funny women we can relate to! Enjoy awesome inspiring theater!
About the Company: Midtown International Theatre Festival
The Midtown International Theatre Festival, now in its eleventh year, celebrates the diversity of theatre. The MITF welcomes theatrical storytelling across a broad spectrum of genres, forms, identities, cultures, and appetites. The MITF seeks to nurture these new ideas, perspectives, and stories on its stages, with an eye set on guiding these productions toward future success and longevity. The festival, traditionally held in summer, represents a fantastic, often paradoxical, adventurous and intriguing cross-section of the forefront of the theatre world. The MITF proudly hosts production companies from across the country and around the globe, uniting talent in one of the biggest theatre capitals in the world.
Mr. Chatterton created the MITF, a Midtown alternative to other theatre festivals, in 2000 as a way to present the finest off-off Broadway talent in convenience, comfort, and safety. In 2008, the Festival added two 99-seat theatres and inaugurated the Commercial Division for upwardly mobile shows with commercial ambitions. The MITF's artistic emphasis is on the script itself and therefore the Festival requests minimal production values.
