Kindness Committee | An original play by Melanie Hoopes SOLD OUT

South Church 343 Broadway, Dobbs Ferry, NY

RiverArts presents Kindness Committee, a new play written and directed by Melanie Hoopes.
Set at a concert on a cold winter night, Kindness Committee sneaks us into the minds of seven audience members connected by varying degrees to one another. As the musician performs, each character’s inner world ignites. Some desire, others despise. One mourns, another commits to a life of living without a past. One warns of the limits of “kindness” while another embodies the act of forgiving. All of them peel away layers of their past as they reach for a sustainable present.
