Proclaimed by Maryland Theatre Guide as an “emotional powerhouse of a production” and the play that “you don’t want to miss,” Dissonance will be performed in The Ritz Theater/Wayne Densch Performing Arts Center, 201 Magnolia Ave, Sanford, FL 32771 on Saturday, August 26th at 3pm and 7pm. The Saturday afternoon performance will include a post-show audience discussion with the actor-writers, facilitated by director James Webb. Tickets are $27.50 to $37.50, including fees, and can be purchased at www.dissonanceplay.com.

Heart Warming, But Gut-Wrenching

BroadwayWorld.com describes Dissonance as a “heart-warming, gut-wrenching, soul-deep experience that can open a lot of eyes and, more importantly, a lot of hearts.” The play’s two characters, Angela, and Lauren, met in graduate school, became godmothers to each other’s children, and more recently, started a new business, but they have never had a candid conversation about race . . . until now. 

Set in the aftermath of George Floyd’s murder and the summer of 2020, these two Florida women must decide if being brutally honest and devastatingly vulnerable is worth the risk of their friendship’s potential end. Director James Webb says, “This play is an even-handed fight that leads to forgiveness, healing, and greater understanding, and we’ve been honored to share this story with communities throughout the country.”
