The play follows Emmie (Latimer), who lives in Paris, Vermont. After landing a job she desperately needs at a general store, Emmie – one of the only black people in town – is made to deal with a new kind of isolation.

The Knud Adams-helmed production will play at Atlantic’s Stage 2 space with previews beginning January 8, 2020, ahead of a January 21 opening. Additional casting will be announced at a later date.
