Veteran theatre actor Robert Leembruggen as the prickly, sharp-witted Mr. Green
Actors Theatre at the ARTfactory is proud to present Visiting Mr. Green, the acclaimed and touching play by Jeff Baron, running Feb. 27, 28, March 1, 6, 7, and 8 at the ARTfactory in Manassas.
Visiting Mr. Green is a two-character comedy-drama starring Robert Leembruggen as Mr. Green, and Joshua Mutterperl as Ross Gardiner, that explores forgiveness, tradition, and the surprising bonds that can form between people from very different worlds. What begins as a court-mandated visit following a minor accident grows into a deeply moving relationship that challenges assumptions and opens hearts.
A quiet but powerful moment as two unlikely characters connect—Visiting Mr. Green sparks conversations that challenge perspectives and bridge generations. Robert Leembruggen and Joshua Mutterperl
Talkbacks Following Each Performance
Following each performance of Visiting Mr. Green, ARTfactory will host post-show talkbacks designed to spark meaningful conversation and deeper engagement with the play’s themes. These discussions will provide audiences an opportunity to reflect, ask questions, and explore the issues raised on stage in a welcoming, community-centered setting. As the production’s sponsor, UVA Health will join ARTfactory for one special talkback on Friday, Feb. 27, contributing a healthcare and community perspective to the dialogue. Together, these talkbacks aim to extend the impact of the performance beyond the stage and encourage thoughtful conversation among audience members.
Free Tickets for Students and Educators
In addition to talkbacks and in keeping with its commitment to accessibility and education, ARTfactory is offering free tickets to students and educators for this production. These special ticket options are designed to ensure that young people and those who teach them can experience live theatre and engage with its powerful storytelling.
