We are about to begin the third week of Joyce Van Dyke's intimate and epic Deported/a dream play. Dreams, music, beautiful and terrible memories, nightmares, dances, haunting songs, weddings, lost babies, new babies, violence, stories that can't be told, compassion, traditions and so many more elements are part of this many-layered phantasmagorical flying carpet ride.
I play Joyce's grandmother Victoria in the play. Deported is Victoria's story and the story of her best friend Varter, played by Jeanine Kane, a wonderful new face in town (she is a long-time company member at the Gamm Theatre in Rhode Island). The amazing ensemble includes Ken Baltin, Marya Lowry, Rob Najarian, Liz Hayes and Marc Cohen, all playing a number of different roles, as well as six students from Suffolk who are the Dreamers and the beautiful Dancers.
