Director’s Note
Hear this heartfelt message from our Director, Scott Shallenbarger:
“Perhaps it is a miracle when we offer our light to someone walking in their darkness. Throughout my life, I have deeply benefitted from those who gave freely of themselves in my time of need; and because of their encouragement (and selflessness,) I was able to walk out of the shadow of hardship and imagine a new tomorrow. Which felt like a miracle.”
Author’s Note
Tom Dudzick, the Playwright of Miracle on South Division Street, shares an insightful message about the creation of this story and the real life inspiration behind the family.
"After our close interaction these last couple of years I find that I’ve fallen head over bowling shoes for the Nowaks, with all their crassness, their squabbles, their secrets and their dreams."
