The Epitome of Grace by Sharon Liotus

The Iron Horse Theatre Company will begin its season with a documentary and one-act play called, The Epitome of Grace.


The Epitome of Grace by Sharon Liotus is based on a book that chronicles the life and career of Chief Rocco. This one-woman play and documentary film highlights the life and career of Chief Therese Rocco, who during her 40-year career is credited with finding 45,000 missing children and persons.


The play begins shortly before Chief Rocco retires from the Pittsburgh Police Department. Epitome of Grace reflects on Therese Rocco’s life, cases, struggles, and accomplishments. The play encapsulates the challenges Therese faced from the 1940s through the 1990s and how she broke through that so-called “glass ceiling”.


This inspirational story is a must-see show that the Iron Horse Theatre Company is proud to produce in 2025.

The show dates are as follows: June 13, 14, 20, 21, 22, 27, and 28.
