A time-traveling talisman and a 10-year-old boy create a theatrical
tour-de-force in The Grown-Up, an impressionistic, free-associating
series of narrative vignettes written by Pulitzer Prize-nominated
playwright, Jordan Harrison (Marjorie Prime, Maple, and Vine). The
Grown-Up is a fairytale about the elusive quality of time—a
perception that intensifies with age—and about the power of
imagination. Touching on stories by Hans Christian Anderson and
others, Harrison interrogates the eerie yet familiar sensation of
feeling like you've disappeared into a land behind a mirror; where the
person staring back at you seems like your child self, but with the
weight of age and personal experience beginning to cloud the image in
front of you. A funny, moving, and magical comedy-drama directed by
visiting guest artist, Kate Eminger. Directed by Kate Eminger Set
