In One Era and Out The Other:
A Patriotic History of the United States from
1901-2001
The High Point Area Arts Council will present In One ERA and Out The Other on Friday, September 27, in the dinner theatre at the Centennial Station Arts Center, 121 S. Centennial Street, High Point.
In One ERA and Out The Other is a
history of 20th century America told through a patriotic,
broad-spectrum prism. "ERA" is a fast-paced musical cabaret
filled with multi-media images from 1901 - 2001. Culminating
with the September 11, 2001 attack on America, the show
refocuses the future with humor and hope.
"ERA" appeals to older audiences from a patriotic and nostalgic point of view and to college audiences for its subliminal language, double entendre, karaoke, prizes, and references to progressive & LGBT rights. Using celebrities, headlines, politics, protests, scandals, sex, sports, natural disasters, and popular culture, Serena Ebhardt makes history personal. She reveals how Americans come together in life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness when they stand united. It is all just a little bit of history repeating with an uplifting look towards the future.
