Up Next: Tuesdays with Morrie
September 22-26,
The Marsh Street Centre, Clarksburg
When successful sports journalist Mitch Albom reconnects with his beloved former college professor, Morrie Schwartz, he discovers that Morrie is living with ALS (Lou Gehrig’s Disease).
What begins as one visit soon becomes a cherished weekly tradition, as teacher and student share one final series of life lessons about love, family, forgiveness, aging, purpose, and what it truly means to live.
Filled with warmth, humour, and profound wisdom, Tuesdays with Morrie has touched millions around the world. This beautifully crafted production by King Theatre Company, directed by Chloë Rose Flowers and starring Josh Palmer and Nicholas Rice, brings this unforgettable story to life with extraordinary heart and authenticity.
Whether you know the beloved book, have seen the movie, or are discovering this remarkable story for the first time, this is theatre at its most moving, and an experience that will leave you inspired long after the curtain falls.
