ROAR

by Ron Briglia

Meet the Forsythe family as they maneuver through the tempestuous 1920' Chandler, the middle child, a sophomore at Princeton University, striving to capture an unattainable love; Jeremiah, the youngest, a lost soul that nightly wanders the streets of a small Ohio town in search of some kind of direction; and Violet, the oldest, engaged to a textiles tycoon but more focused on keeping her dysfunctional family from being apart by a turbulent father, with her long-suffering mother helpless to intervene. The world surrounding them is also in turmoil with the rising tide of Bolshevism in Russia and socialism creeping into American life, and an entire generation dealing with the aftermath of a world war overseas while Prohibition is just around the corner with Congress ratifying the Volstead Act. All this is coupled with a sensational murder trial that rocks an entire state, and a titanic force that is one of the most famous debutantes on the East Coast, Mattie Somers, The Philadelphia Rocket. Come and bear witness to the 20's ROAR...
