SPRING WEATHER BRINGS IN
THE OUTGOING TIDE
Join TPT for a timeless story of family and identity.
THE OUTGOING TIDE, by Bruce Graham, makes its Michigan
Premiere at TPT.
Gunner has retired from his trucking
business and now lives in their summer
home on the Chesapeake Bay with his
wife of 50 years. He has come up with an
unorthodox plan to secure his family’s
future. His plan is met with resistance from
his wife, Peg and son, Jack, who have plans
of their own. As winter approaches, the
three must quickly find common ground
and come to an understanding—before the tide goes out. The
play echo’s the responsibilities that family members have for one
another and the ways in which our family shapes our identity as
we grow up.
THE OUTGOING TIDE runs from April 9 through May 3, 2015.
The curtain rises at 8:00 pm Thursdays through Saturdays, with
matinees at 3:00 pm on Saturday and 2:00 pm on Sunday. A
special matinee performance has been added on Wednesday,
April 22 at 3:00 pm.
Tickets are $29 to $32 for adults and $27 to $30 for students and
senior citizens and are available now by calling the box office at
(248) 347-0003.

Village Workshop!
You will be treated to a fun evening event, complete with a
performance of Office Hours by Norm Foster (The Love List, Old

that you and your friends are going to love! Dinner and dessert

prizes will make the evening complete. Tickets are $100 ($50 Tax
Deductible)

A Lovely Sunday for
Creve Coeur
by
Tennessee Williams
An unexpectedly sweet, honest and totally
enjoyable treat from an American master
AN UNEXPECTED COMEDY ARRIVES AT TPT
A Sweet, Honest, and Totally Enjoyable Tennessee.
A LOVELY SUNDAY FOR CREVE COEUR,
by Tennessee Williams, is a lovely summer comedy for all ages.
Set in a cramped St. Louis apartment in the mid-1930s, where
Dorothea, a high school civics teacher, rooms with Bodey, a
plain but caring and kind-hearted German-American spinster.
Dorothea, a hopeless romantic, dreams of marriage with the
principal of the school, while her protective roommate, Bodey,
hopes to match Dorothea up with her fat, cigar-smoking twin
brother, Buddy. Bodey tries to persuade Dorothea to join them
for a picnic at Creve Coeur, a nearby amusement park. Their
departure is delayed by the arrival of Helena, a snobbish, tarttongued art teacher, who wants Dorothea to share an apartment
with her in a better part of town. Inevitably, a struggle evolves
between Bodey and Helena, with Dorothea, lost in her dream
world, caught between these two strong women.
A LOVELY SUNDAY FOR CREVE COEUR runs from May 28 through
June 28. The curtain rises at 8 pm Thursdays through Saturdays,
with matinees at 3 pm on Saturday and 2 pm on Sunday. A
special matinee performance has been added on Wednesday,
June 17 at 3 pm.
These activities are supported in part by an award from the
MICHIGAN COUNCIL FOR ARTS AND CULTURAL AFFAIRS and the
NATIONAL ENDOWMENT FOR THE ARTS, The Kresge Foundation
and The Shubert Foundation.
