In Tom Dudzick’s “Miracle on South Division Street,” Clara Nowak, of Buffalo, New York, and her three grown kids have always known they were special, ever since the miraculous night in 1942, when the Blessed Mother appeared to their grandfather in his barbershop.
Since then the neighborhood has looked upon the Nowaks’ commemorative shrine as a beacon of hope and faith amidst the urban rubble. When daughter Ruth announces her plans to write and star in a one-woman show about the family miracle so the “whole world will know,” a deathbed confession causes the family legend to unravel.
The Ghent Playhouse in Ghent, New York presents “Miracle on South Division Street” starting tomorrow with performances through the 17th.
Cathy Visscher, the Director of “Miracle On South Division Street,” and the artist director of the Ghent playhouse and Sam Reilly who plays Jimmy in “Miracle On South Division Street” and is the Vice President of the Ghent playhouse board of directors join us.
