| A stunning comedy about the redemptive power of friendship |

Superior Donuts getting rave reviews!!!!!Rave reviews for Stageworks’ production of Superior Donuts, now through October 26.
A stellar cast leads us through an extraordinary journey, in this stunning new comedy from the Tony and Pulitzer Prize-winning author of August: Osage County.
Jim Wicker makes you cry, Richard Coppinger makes you laugh, and Blake High senior Travis Brown makes you sizzle with an electrifying performance that everyone is talking about.
This play takes every stereotype you know, and turns them upside down. You’ll root for timid police officer Roxanne Fay, her Trekkie partner Joshua Goff, and the wild homeless woman portrayed by Dawn Truax. Peter Konowicz and Michael Mekus are eerily compelling gangsters, and Tim Guerierri surprises as a guy who’s not your standard Russian goon. Letts’ provocative comedy turns up the heat on the challenges of embracing the past and the redemptive power of friendship.
