🎭 A biracial woman explores her Appalachian and bluegrass roots in The Porch on Windy Hill at NorthlightThtr. | ✍️ joshua_flanders
at Northlight TheatreHearken back to a simpler time—the pandemic—and join Mira, a classical violinist, and Beckett, a folk music academic, as they escape their Brooklyn apartment and head to a hootenanny in Georgia. Along the way, Mira, who is biracial , reveals to Beckett that her estranged grandfather lives in Appalachia, and they stop off for a visit that just might heal old wounds.
The first half is a light music-filled reconnection, while the second half gets to the reasons why Edgar is estranged and Mira’s unresolved hurt. There are no deep insights or surprises, and sadly the responsibility to initiate reconciliation comes from the one minority character wronged rather than the person who should be making amends. However, the play is so well written and performed, and the music so enjoyable, you can almost forgive this omission of accountability.
