Return Engagement

Theatre Du Mississippi

Theatre du Mississippi kicks off its 25th anniversary season with “Return Engagement” by local playwright Kathleen Kenney-Peterson.

Minnesota Conservatory for the Arts

The play tells the story of Richard, a gay New York stage actor who has developed multiple sclerosis and is forced to move back to his small Minnesota hometown. It explores his struggles dealing with a chronic illness, and the difficulties of reconnecting with his family, who now are tasked with helping him. With honesty and humor, the play explores how a life-changing event can open unexpected windows in one’s life, and that it’s never too late to discover a new perspective on one’s family relationships or even one’s hometown. Director Daryl Lanz, owner of Chapter 2 Books in Winona, has directed several local plays in the past. “Working on a new play can be challenging but also very exciting” Lanz says. “Knowing that the cast and crew are the first group to take on this work is a very special feeling.” Theatre Du Mississippi advises that the play contains adult language throughout. Michael Fitzpatrick, a favorite actor of Winona’s Great River Shakespeare Festival, will play the lead role.
