City Theatre explores the true untold story of Operation Paperclip
Jan. 23-Feb. 14
‘Some Brighter Distance’
City Theatre Company presents “Some Brighter Distance” Jan. 23-Feb. 14 on the theatre’s main stage located on the South Side.
During the Cold War, German rocket scientist Arthur Rudolph was instrumental in helping America win the Space Race. When he is forced to confront his Nazi history, Rudolph and his wife are cast out of the country he has diligently served for nearly 40 years. Written by award-winning author and City Theatre favorite Keith Reddin and directed by Tracy Brigden, this time-bending play explores the untold (and true) story of “Operation Paperclip” and questions the cost of burying the past in pursuit of the future.
Tickets are $36-$56.
