A staged reading of the play 110 Stories, by Sara Tuft, will be performed on Sept. 14, at 3 p.m. at Kingswood Church located at 302 N. State Street in Geneseo.
The play is a compilation of representative stories about 9/11 and the Twin Towers: the rescuers, the rescued; the healers, the healing; those who ran toward danger and those who perished.
This performance is not suitable for children under the age of 13. Out of respect for the stories that honor the heroes of 911, the actors and the patrons there will be no late seating.
There will be a $12 suggested ticket donation for the performance and tickets are available through the Kingswood Church before their Saturday 6 p.m. and Sunday morning services at 8, 9 and 10:30 a.m. Advance online ticket reservations may be placed at: 110StoriesGeneseo@gmail.com.
All proceeds of ticket sales will be donated to the Henry County Office of Emergency Management – OEM, which needs to replace its Radiation Detection Unit, now long past its prime and beyond grant-funding from Homeland Security. The unit not only detects radiation, but air-quality generally at disaster sites. OEM’s conducts operations in Henry, Stark and Mercer Counties—an area of 1,683 square miles, the largest such district in the State of Illinois.
