SUMMARY:Route 66 to the Grand Canyon
DESCRIPTION:Theatrikos presents Route 66 to the Grand Canyon\, a hilarious and heartfelt ride down the Mother Road\, at the Museum of Northern Arizona. \nWhen Ruth’s car breaks down just outside Flagstaff\, her frustrating detour takes an unexpected turn. Enter Mother Road—a mystical\, mischievous embodiment of Route 66 itself—who sprinkles a little road dust and whisks Ruth away on a magical journey through the heart of Northern Arizona. Along the way\, they meet James\, a tow truck mechanic with dreams and jokes as big as the canyon. \nPart play\, part interactive experience\, and inspired by the British tradition of “end-of-the-pier” shows\, Route 66 to the Grand Canyon is filled with groan-worthy jokes\, delightfully over-the-top characters\, and laugh-out-loud moments for audiences of all ages. This play-within-a-play celebrates Flagstaff\, the Grand Canyon\, and the strange\, beautiful charm that makes Route 66 a road trip like no other. \nRoute 66 to the Grand Canyon is written by Peter M. Kershaw and directed by John Propster. \nPurchase tickets online or at the door.
