After Ashley, directed by Jason Bruffy, is a blisteringly funny and deeply moving story about a teenage boy navigating the media circus surrounding his mother’s tragic death. Know Theatre of Cincinnati concludes its 2006-07 Season “Entertainment Outside the Box” with Gina Gionfriddo’s critically acclaimed satire After Ashley in place of the originally slated Vatican Falls. Know Theatre is proud to present the Regional Premiere of After Ashley from April 19 �" May 12 at Know Theatre, 1120 Jackson Street. Tickets are available through 513.621.ARTS (2787) or online at www.knowtheatre.com. Gionfriddo’s After Ashley brings to light struggles of love, loyalty and ultimately the question of how to do what is right. Three years after the murder of his mother, Justin, a troubled teenager, can hardly function. His father, Alden, has written a best-selling book about the crime and has even landed his own TV talk-show. While America embraces its obsession with violence and victims, Justin cannot come to terms. Captured in a media frenzy, he begins to ask how far should a person go to stand up for what he believes in, and who has the right to say how a person is remembered? “After Ashley is an inquisitive satire that is outlandishly funny and heartbreaking at the same time,” says director Jason Bruffy.
