Redbud Productions (voted 2011’s Best Stage Production Company by annarbor.com readers) is proud to present award-winning playwright Adam Bock’s critically-acclaimed Off-Broadway play – A Small Fire, nominated for Best Play of 2011 as well as several other Drama Desk Awards.

Do not miss the Midwest premiere of this family drama by the author of The Receptionist. The New York Times raved that A Small Fire is “about the complex, ever-evolving nature of enduring relationships….funny and unexpectedly touching.”

Emily Bridges (Cassie Mann) loves her job as the owner of a high profile construction firm. She is confident, assured and runs a tight and successful organization. Her daughter (Dana Denha) is about to be wed and she is successfully married to an HR manager (Tim Grimes).

But, as she describes to her close employee (Brad Sharp), she does not approve of her daughter’s fiancé, is extremely uneasy at home, and is determined to stop her daughter’s wedding!

When something shocking and unexpected happens, Emily is called to re-examine what she cherishes most – and her family and friends must also closely examine their relationships to her. The result is, according to New York 1, “a play about … love (both parental and marital), health and friendship ….. beautifully conceived.”

A Small Fire is presented by special arrangement with SAMUEL FRENCH, INC.

Do not miss this wonderful play that Variety praised as an “unforgettable banquet.”
