LIKE HEAVEN

A New Comedy
by a beloved Arizona playwright

By Elaine Romero

Directed by
Samantha Wyer Bello

May 6-13
Estrella Mountain Community College Performing Arts Center

April dreams of singing on a stage, but life and love are in the way. Her little sister can’t let her go, and her friend Trudy worries about her eternal soul. Enter a mysterious stranger who unwittingly provides a path to escape. Filled with heart and humor, Like Heaven is a new comedy by award-winning Arizona playwright Elaine Romero that affectionately skewers our nostalgia for green lawns and white picket fences while asking, “Is this what heaven looks like?”…and “Where the hell is the Windex?”
