Presented by James Roday’s Red Dog Squadron and VS. Theatre Company
Written by William Francis Hoffman / Directed by Amy K. Harmon

Do wounds from the past irrevocably impact our capacity to connect? Lyrical and mysterious, Hoffman’s play probes the nature of bonding in family relationships and beyond. With heart aching humor, he explores the revelations we all resist when overcoming the obstacles we must conquer. Biblical, apocalyptic, and beautiful, the play offers characters who yearn to overcome economic turmoil, environmental detriment, and domestic unrest. Be prepared for a flood of the heart.
“Hoffmann’s expressive writing style evokes a nature versus nurture apparition that haunts the modern, American Midwest. The play illumines themes reminiscent of Sam Shepherd, with the suburban undertones of a Gregory Crewdson photograph,” says Co-Artistic Director James Roday.

"There is a wild poetry afoot here; bringing to the forefront the expectations we put on ourselves, our families, our relationships, our children," says director Amy K. Harmon. "It’s like a primal pulse that develops into a tome, animalistic yet delicate, about fighting for ones individual survival while trying to save the pack.”
Playwright William Francis Hoffman recently completed his latest full-length play, Drift, which will receive its first workshop at Palm Beach Dramaworks in January. His play Cal in Camo received its world premiere in May of 2016 at the Rattlestick Playwrights Theater in New York City. He was a member of the Rivendell Theatre Ensemble in Chicago, Illinois and is a current member of the Actor's Gym in Los Angeles California, where he resides. William is currently working on a pilot and has outlined the first season.
