Leaving Iowa is a hilarious, sentimental comedy about families and family vacations. Nominated for Best New Play in the Country by the Detroit Free Press, it centers around a Boston journalist who returns to his boyhood home in Iowa to visit his family and who ends up on a journey that takes him across the state. Along the way, he finds himself reliving summer vacations trapped in the family station wagon between tourist traps and historical markers which his father deemed educational. As the riotous journey continues down the highway, his appreciation of his dad's fortitude as a parent soars. Critically acclaimed by the Chicago Tribune and Sun Times, Leaving Iowa has been wowing folks in Chicago for over a year. It’s a real crowd pleaser that will be a hit with everyone in your family, from age 10 to 110. Don't miss the Twin Cities Premiere!
