Theatre Arlington stages Visiting Mr. Green

Theatre Arlington announces its upcoming production of Visiting Mr. Green, the drama with a cry for humanity that is absolutely sublime in its expression.

This is the story of a recently widowed Manhattanite, Mr. Green, who wanders into traffic and is nearly hit by the young Ross Gardiner. Ordered by a judge to fulfill his community service by assisting Mr. Green once a week, Gardiner finds himself caring for the elderly man, and what begins as a comedy about two men who can barely stand each other becomes a beautiful drama about connection, family, friendship and forgiveness.

Theatre Arlington Executive Producer Steven D. Morris is directing two Dallas-Fort Worth favorites, David Coffee as Mr. Green and Parker Gray as Ross Gardiner.

“It is a treat to be able to work on this beautiful production with two of the best actors I know and this incredible design team," Morris said. "This is a must-see production.”

With a expertly designed apartment interior set designed by Kevin Brown and costume design by Karen Potter that appears effortless, this play will bring you into the world of Mr. Green, complete with sound design by Ryan Simon and lighting by Bryan Stevenson.

Join us in this beautiful experience as we learn how to live with – and care for – each other with laughter and tears at Theatre Arlington. Group rates are available for parties of 10 or more.

Visiting Mr. Green will open 7:30 p.m. Sept. 13 and will close at 2 p.m. Sept. 29 with the following schedule:

7:30 p.m. Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays

2 p.m. Sundays
