American Home at Fremont Centre Theatre

In 2008, one out of every 54 homes in America received a foreclosure notice. Now award-winning playwright Stephanie Alison Walker, author of Love in the Time of Foreclosure, is taking audiences on a deeply personal journey through recent history as she shines a light on three out of the literally millions of stories of loss. In American Home, a young couple faces eviction from their dream home, an elderly widow falls prey to a reverse mortgage scheme and a minister of the 'prosperity gospel" must face the flock she's led astray. Presented at Fremont Centre Theatre in South Pasadena, this trio of stories is an unflinching look at the tough choices people make when faced with losing everything, and, ultimately, celebrates the powerful resilience of community and the human spirit.
