WV Collective is proud to announce our most ambitious fully-original theatre production to date: A WEST VIRGINIA STORY

The latest play from area playwright JC Lacek (Abomination on Bolt Mountain, FRACK!!), AWVS tells the story of the ups and downs of family life in coal country during the mid-80s. Unlike previous theater performances, AWVS marks our first-ever audio/video hybrid stage experience.

Submissions are open for anyone looking to volunteer as a member of the team – backstage and front-of-house positions are always available.

What is “A West Virginia Story?”

The third play from area playwright JC Lacek (Abomination on Bolt Mountain, FRACK!!) AWVS is billed as “an audio-video 80s comedy event of mountainous proportions.” Telling the story of the ups and downs of the fictional Callahan Family, the play pulls lighthearted inspiration from early 1980s film, TV, politics, sports, and pop culture. Unlike previous theatrical performances, AWVS marks the WV Collective’s first-ever audio-video hybrid stage experience.
