Actors Collaborative Performance: The Velocity of Autumn Actors Collaborative Toledo in association with The Valentine Theatre present The Velocity of Autumn by Eric Coble to benefit Jewish Family Service of Toledo. The stage reading, directed by Jeffrey Albright, will be performed March 16 and 17. Each performance will be followed by a meet and greet and Q&A session with Levinson and Causman. The Velocity of Autumn swirls around Alexandra, an 80-year-old artist in a showdown with her family over where she’ll spend her remaining years. In Alexandra’s corner are her wit, her volcanic passion, and the fact that she’s barricaded herself in her Brooklyn brownstone with enough Molotov cocktails to take out the block. But her children have their own secret weapon: estranged son Chris, who returns after 20 years, crawls through Alexandra’s second-floor window and becomes the family’s unlikely mediator. No sooner are the words “Hi, Mom” uttered than the emotional bombs start detonating. The Velocity of Autumn is a wickedly funny and wonderfully touching discovery of the fragility and ferocity of life. Showtimes for The Velocity of Autumn are March 16 at 8 p.m. and March 17 at 3 p.m. Tickets are $15 each and can be purchased at www.valentinetheatre.com. WEST MISSION AREA & BEYOND
