Instead of relishing life after her heart transplant, Joy enters a downward spiral, unsure whether she truly deserves a second chance. Meanwhile, Alice and Hank mourn the loss of their son, Jack, whose heart was used to save Joy. At a friend’s urging, Joy tracks down Jack’s family to find closure. But are Alice, Hank, and their daughter Sammy ready to accept Jack’s death? Based on a true story, The Tin Woman uses humor and pathos to explore loss, family, and what it means to be given new life.
Performances will be held Saturday, March 23 at 7 PM & Sunday, March 24 at 3 PM in the Smithville Elementary Cafetorium. Tickets are $5 and should be purchased in advance at: https://spicket.events/smithville

Congratulations to the cast and crew of our 2024 UIL One Act Play, The Tin Woman!
These Shining Lives chronicles the strength and determination of women considered expendable in their day, exploring their true story and its continued resonance. Catherine and her friends are dying, it’s true; but theirs is a story of survival in its most transcendent sense, as they refuse to allow the company that stole their health to kill their spirits—or endanger the lives of those who come after them.
Performances will be held Friday & Saturday, November 17 & 18 at 7:00 PM in the Smithville Elementary Cafetorium. Tickets are $5 and should be purchased in advance at: https://spicket.events/smithville.
Congratulations to the cast and crew of this year’s fall play, These Shining Lives!
