“Miracle on South Division Street” revolves around the Nowak family, members of the Roman Catholic, Polish-American community living on the East Side of Buffalo, N.Y. Clara, the family matriarch, happily runs her soup kitchen and tends to the family heirloom – a 20-foot shrine to the Blessed Mother that commemorates the day in 1942 when the Blessed Virgin Mary materialized in her father’s barber shop. In a family meeting, daughter Ruth, a struggling actress, divulges her plan to go public with the family miracle by creating a one-woman play about the sacred event. However, the entire family’s faith is shaken to the core when a deathbed confession causes the family legend to unravel.

“Miracle on South Division Street” runs May 2-June 2. For more information visit btechicago.com.
