Description

“Thoroughly enjoyed the play. Melanie Lamrock was outstanding.” -Peter Bhatia, Editor-in-chief Detroit Free Press. Old Heart tells the story of African American GI Tom Johnson who joins forces with 24-year-old Sarah van Praag and the Dutch resistance to smuggle food and supplies from the liberated south across Nazi lines to starving cities in the northern Netherlands. Their brief love affair collapses at the war’s end, and sixty years later Johnson, about to be sent off to assisted living by his family, disappears on a flight to Amsterdam. While his children desperately try to locate him, Johnson is determined to track down Sarah. The play is adapted from Peter Ferry's award winning book. Sarah van Praag (Melanie Lamrock) and Young Tom Johnson (Jakari Carson)
