Violet

Firehouse Theater, 450 E. Market, Alliance, Ohio

Violet, the musical, tells the story of a young woman's quest for beauty amidst the image-obsessed landscape of the 1960s. Facially disfigured in a childhood accident, Violet dreams of a miraculous transformation through the power of faith. Convinced that a televangelist in Oklahoma can heal her, she hops a Greyhound bus and starts the journey of a lifetime. Along the way, Violet forms unlikely friendships with her fellow riders, who teach her about beauty, love, courage, and what it means to be an outsider. *J.J. Vicars is the guitarist in the pit band. - See more at: http://www.jjvicars.com/calendar#sthash.GjIdBv5n.dpuf
