Title:
The Velvet Rut by James Still

Description:
Kansas City's Unicorn Theatre presents the World Premiere of a new play, The Velvet Rut. Mr. Smith is a high school teacher who loves his students, his wife and his poetry. While struggling to regain meaning and beauty in his life, he meets Virgil, a mysterious youth. Virgil takes him on a mind-blowing and soul-searching camping trip through the wilderness teaching him that the change he seeks is just a matter of will. The journey they take together reveals what they both need to survive. Development for THE VELVET RUT was supported by the Eugene ONeill Theater Center during a residency at the National Playwrights Conference of 2007. The play also appeared in Unicorn Theatres 2007-2008 In-Progress New Play Reading Series.
