Vincent

By Leonard Nimoy

November 3 through 6, 2016
Four performances only!
Thursday through Saturday at 7 PM
Sunday at 2 PM

Leonard Nimoy’s Vincent dramatizes the life of Vincent van Gogh in this intimate one-man play adapted from the actual letters between the artist and his brother, Theo. Van Gogh’s story is so much more than that of the misunderstood genius who cut off his own ear. In this play, Vincent’s brother, Theo, movingly reveals Vincent as few knew him. Theo teaches us the meaning and significance of his brother’s life to all humankind: Vincent van Gogh lives on as a symbol of inspiration, courage, passion, and the lust for life that art kindles in all of us. The play includes over 100 stunning high-resolution projections of Vincent’s artwork on a large screen.

Presented by Starry Night Theater Company and performed by actor James Briggs.

While appropriate for all audiences, it is best suited for adults and children ages ten and up.
