HEART MOUNTAIN
By G. Bruce Smith, Concept by Perviz Sawoski
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This production, previously performed in Nov. '12, has been selected for the prestigious 2013 Kennedy Center American College Theater Festival’s regional competition being held at the LA Theater Center in mid-February. It is one of 7 plays selected from 179 productions at 55 colleges and universities judged this past year throughout the western region: Southern California, Southern Nevada, Arizona, Utah and Hawaii.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
In the wake of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, President FDR authorized the relocation of over 100,000 persons of Japanese descent to internment camps in remote areas of the country. Through text, music, dance and powerful imagery, Heart Mountain chronicles the life of a family in one such camp as it struggles to maintain dignity.
