Midtown Productions Goes the Extra Mile

Come out to James Island for GREAT local theater!

Multi-Award Winning Midtown Productions is proud to present 4,000 Miles, starring local theatre favorites Samille Basler (Driving Miss Daisy) and Storm Smith (Last Train to Nibroc).

Amy Herzog’s 4000 Miles also challenges the mind and tugs at the heart. The story centers around Leo, a 21-year-old environmentalist struggling to find himself after experiencing personal tragedy. Luckily for Leo, his feisty 91-year-old grandmother, Vera, is there to show him the way.

Perhaps the Chicago Tribune said it best, ”No play I’ve seen has better understood what a grandparent and grandchild actually can do for one another, if they are given the chance.”

4000 Miles plays Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturday nights at 8pm, with one Sunday matinee at 3pm on November 30. (No performance on Thanksgiving Day.)
