Blue Star Highway explores themes of love and secrecy across generations. In 1994, William, a closeted high school teacher, meets Ben in Saugatuck, Michigan, leading him to envision a different life. Thirty years later, William's family arrives for a funeral, uncovering the life he once led and confronting their past, ultimately redefining their understanding of family. The play is directed by Kevin Keller and features a cast including Mike Sandusky, Jordan Clime, AJ Dagenais, and Stirling Orlowski.
