 Casey Thomas, a multi-award winning actor and director, originally from the Scranton area, is so excited and proud to be back in his hometown, teaming up with the gifted Ted LoRusso to bring Ted’s published works together in an effort to create an unforgettable theatrical experience for all ages. 

As does all of Ted’s work, these three pieces of theater are a delightfully satirical look at life and all its absurdities. “A Man, a Woman, a Head of Lettuce,” is essentially a play in three pieces. A metamorphosis so to speak, in my opinion,” states the director. “It’s a show that must be seen, not explained.”
