WINDBERRY CREEK Opens Thursday At MadLab

Grandmother. Mother. Daughter. Three ladies in three separate generations join together under one roof to deal with the aftermath of family tragedy, all while looking to their own individual futures. In Windberry Creek, opening October 14th at MadLab Theatre.

In Oregon's Cascade Mountains, three generations of women grapple with the past and an uncertain future, in this story of love, loss and water-skiing squirrels.
