West by God

January 17, 2020 @ 7:30 pm - 10:30 pm

$10

The Keegan Theatre presents Brandon McCoy’s heartwarming new play, WEST BY GOD. The play made its world premiere on September 27, 2019 at The Keegan Theatre in Washington, DC. WEST BY GOD will travel to West Virginia in the first ever KeeganConnects tour, a new annual initiative designed to take original, provocative plays to small towns and communities nationwide. The play will run at Marshall University with performances January 17th, 18th, 19th, 24th, and 25th in the Joan C. Edwards Playhouse at 7:30pm and a 2pm showing January 19.

WEST BY GOD is a story about home. In a small town in the Appalachia region of West Virginia, two different families grapple with issues of grief and love, memory and identity, and with the distance and time that both unite and divide generations. A new play by West Virginia native Brandon McCoy, WEST BY GOD is a funny, heartwarming, and gut‐wrenchingly honest examination of the divide between urban and rural America, and the kinds of prejudice and intolerance too often left unchallenged in our society.

$10.00 Admission for all shows except January 19th which is FREE!
For tickets, call (304) 696-ARTS (2787)
