Told in three acts set in the gritty American West, the story alternates between two families after a severe incident of spousal abuse leaves all their lives altered. The two families, one composed of Baylor, Meg, Beth, and Mike, the other composed of Lorraine, Sally, Frankie, and Jake are connected by the marriage of Jake and Beth, whose beating and subsequent hospitalization at the hands of Jake initiates the beginning of the play. Exploring family dysfunction and the nature of love, the play follows Jake as he searches for meaning after Beth, and her family, as they struggle with Beth's brain damage.
Featuring: Haley Johnson as Beth, Darcy Kennedy as Meg, Dell Domnik as Baylor, Sam Gilstrap as Mike, Chris Bleau as Jake, Libby Rife as Lorraine, Paul Jaquith as Frankie, Mary Kay Riley as Sally.
