GCFAGCFA Present: Leaving Iowa 

The Guerin Catholic Fine Arts Alliance Presents the play "Leaving Iowa", a comedy about family vacations, by Tim Clue and Spike Manton.   The spark behind Leaving Iowa comes from being children of parents from the now dubbed "greatest generation." The story is a toast to their idealism and character and a little roast of their undying dedication to the classic family road trip.   

The play opened to a full house last night!  Tickets are $10 each and Guerin Catholic students are admitted free of charge with a valid school ID.  The play continues TONIGHT, and closes with a final performance on Saturday, February 4th.  All shows times are 7:00 pm.
