"Christian Bordelon and William Schneider wrung every comic and touching nuance from the Evacuation Theatre Troupe's account of traveling in an RV "To the Headwaters" of the Mississippi River. Their journey included stops in Nowhere, Texas; an encounter with police in Red Cloud, Nevada; the generosity and love of the people in a small Kansas town; and the magical moment of standing in the water where the Mississippi begins." David Cuthbert, Times Picayune
To the Headwaters is a comedic and poignant look at the travels of the Evacuation Theatre Troupe, who in the fall of 2006, rented a 37 foot RV and traveled up and down the Great River Road to the Headwaters of the Mississippi, sharing the history, heartache and humor of Louisiana with audiences across the Midwest. To the Headwaters was adapted from the troupe's road journals.
Written and Directed by Christian Bordelon and Barry Lemoine
