[Capdist-announce] Regional Premiere of WATER BY THE SPOONFUL, April 24-May 3

[Confetti Stage]

Confetti Stage presents the regional premiere of

WATER BY THE SPOONFUL
Winner of the 2012 Pulitzer Prize for Drama
by Quiara Alegría Hudes
directed by Amanda Brinke

Confetti Stage presents the regional premiere of Water by the Spoonful,
winner of the 2012 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, by Quiara Alegría Hudes.
Hudes is perhaps best known for writing the book for 2008 Tony-winning Best
Musical, In the Heights.

In Water by the Spoonful, Hudes crafts a love song to her native city of
Philadelphia in this uniquely modern drama, which tells the story of Elliot
Ortiz, a returning Iraq War veteran who is haunted by the ghosts of his
past. Hudes also weaves together the stories of several recovering crack
addicts seeking support and connection in an online chat room. As
storylines in both the real and virtual worlds clash and collide, we share
in the triumphs and struggles of belonging to a family – whether that
family is of flesh and blood or chosen and forged through online
connections. Variety hailed Water by the Spoonful as “a combination poem,
prayer, and app on how to cope in an age of uncertainty, speed, and chaos.”
