City College’s first play of the season to open Oct. 6

The Black Box Theatre presents “Salvation Road,” a production of the Dramatic Arts Program

The San Diego City College Dramatic Arts Program will open its first production of the fall with the play “Salvation Road.”

The production includes seven performances that will run from Oct. 6-14 in City College’s Black Box Theatre.

Originally written by D.W. Gregory, the play is directed by drama Professor Katie Rodda.

“I really like this piece,” Rodda said. “It deals a lot with faith but also questions why we believe what we believe … including being true to yourself and being respectful of everybody’s journey with their own particular faith.” 

“Salvation Road” tells the story of college freshman Denise, who drops out of school to join a charismatic church, cutting contact with her family and friends. 

Three of the cast members will be returning after appearing in Rodda’s production of “The Wolves” in 2022 and one is returning after performing in “Good Kids” in 2016.

Six of 13 in the cast are making their City College theatre debuts.

The Black Box Theatre is located in the northwest corner of the AH Building in AH-320.

Showtimes and tickets are available at citycollegetheatre.com.
