Directed by James Cady
The play explores a universal longing for connection. At its center is John Singer, a lonely deaf man, who becomes the confidant to a constellation of disparate souls—an angry carnival worker, a crusading physician, the owner of a failing café and a fifteen-year-old girl in love with music—all seeking understanding and compassion from a man desperately in need of understanding himself.
Each pours their heart out to Singer, and he in turn changes their disenchanted lives in ways they could never imagine. Moving, sensitive and deeply humane, The Heart is a Lonely Hunter examines loneliness, the human need for understanding, and our search for love.
An ASL interpreted performance is available on Saturday, February 29, 2020 at 7:30 pm
Tickets: $24, $21, $17.
PWYW: Mar 1, 2020
Talkback: Feb 23, 2020

The Vortex regrets that the Feb. 21-23 performances of The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter have been canceled due to illness. A new performance for Thursday, March 5, 2020 at 7:30 pm has been added to help with rescheduling and the PWYW performance has been moved to Sunday March 1. The Vortex will be contacting seat holders for the affected shows. Patrons who have already paid for their tickets (including March 1) will be offered a refund or a transfer to a different performance.
