Miami, FL – March 6, 2014 – Miami theater buffs came out to the Arsht Center on Thursday evening to check out the latest play that is creating quite a buzz. Appalachian Squall is a prohibition-era cautionary tale about love, pain, and alcoholism. Utilizing old archival & new film footage projections, original music, live performance, and the heartbeat of Appalachian culture – (live) traditional mountain music, this piece created a black and white theatre/silent film experience that was unforgettable. Appalachian Squall is inspired by the grit of mountain life, the strength of mountain folk, and the stories and ballads of mountain music, whose sometimes festive, sometimes harrowing melodies and themes capture the romance and anguish of love and alcoholism. As the show came to a close, fans gave a standing ovation to the incredible performers who wowed them with their amazing execution of the tale.
