The Cure: An Adirondack Story by Frederic Glover
Director/Production Designer: Kent Streed
Assistant Director/Sound Design: George Cordes
Projections: Ben Jones
Stage Manager: Peggy Orman
A world premiere of a play written by Canton, NY playwright Frederic Glover and inspired by actual people and events in Saranac Lake, NY during the summer of 1936. Margaret, a writer from New York City is seeking “the cure” for her case of tuberculosis at the famous Saranac Lake health resort. Her story intertwines with the life and struggles of Dr. Edward Trudeau, a driven, deeply compassionate man who has devoted himself to finding a cure for the dreaded disease during the late 1800s. The stories of Margaret and Dr. Trudeau combine to celebrate the importance of community in healing and the many sides of the natural world while emphasizing the struggle to transcend a deadly pandemic. Featuring cast and crew from across the North Country – don't miss the brand-new Adirondack work making its world premiere at the Arts Center this fall!
