"A Little Potato and Hard to Peel"

Part of the "Best of the New Works Series", benefiting the 2016 New Works Series.

Writer and Performer: David Harrell
Director: Kirk White

"A Little Potato and Hard to Peel" is a universal story...that is, a universal story about a not so ordinary life. David Harrell was born without his right hand. His parents, having never known anyone with a disability, promised he would never be different. He soon realizes, however, the metal hook he wears on his right hand does in fact make him feel different. "A Little Potato and Hard to Peel" is not so much a show about living with a disability or overcoming the circumstances of his life but the journey to find the awareness to not be defined by limitations. Through his journey we learn to not let ourselves be defined by our own limitations or let the circumstances of our lives peel away the core of our humanity.

Wednesday, March 2nd, 2016 at 7:00pm.

NOTE: This performance includes two shows: "A Little Potato and Hard to Peel" and "Delusions of Grandeur (Symphony No. 4 in F Minor)"

Emerging Artists returns with their one-of-a-kind festival, kicking off with a week of "Best of" encore performances from the last 3 years.. Visit the theater any evening during this three-week event, and you'll find yourself transported in a number of surprising ways: by a single performer embodying a whole host of characters; by a more experimental theater piece "done differently" that challenges and delights; by a cozy two-person show exploring relationships; or perhaps by a bouncy new musical that will have you humming. Emerging Artists has always been about new works, new talents, new voices. That's never been more evident than now.

NO REFUNDS or changes will be allowed, so please plan travel time accordingly
