Zootopia Theatre Company proudly announces the world premiere of Barton Bishop's STILL THE RIVER RUNS Directed by Matthew J. Nichols "Ain’t no one alive knows what dead feels like," reasons Jesse. Will that stop him and his brother Wyatt from stealing their dead Paw Paw’s body right from under their family’s nose? Will Paw Paw’s spirit be more at peace buried in the land of his old Florida hunting grounds? Will Wyatt, on leave from the War in Iraq, and Jesse, saddled with a mountain of debt and mouths to feed, be able to cross the deepening divide between them? These questions and more are explored in Barton Bishop’s hilarious and moving portrait of two brothers still struggling to swim in an ever-changing river.     June 19 - July 6, 2008 Center Stage, NY  48 West 21st Street, NYC   Barton Bishop is the author of Up Up Down Down, Still The River Runs, bloodrust, Peaceful Easy, bliss, God's Daughter, Graduation Day , The Great Who Knows, The Amphibian Song, and The Complex.
