by Jane Wagner for Lily Tomlin! Drama Critics and Tony-Award Winner!
Intimate. Infamous. Incorrigible. LNT's production will star Maura O'Brien and Stoph Scheer!
Through the eyes of a lovable, eccentric sharp-witted “bag lady” with a heart as vast as the cosmos she ponders, Wagner weaves a rich tapestry of interconnected stories.
Full of a host of quirky characters, Search for Signs celebrates a mosaic of humanity in all its beauty, chaos, and contradiction, revealing the invisible threads that connect us all!
Masks are encouraged, not required.
(LNT’s State of the Art Bio-Defense Air Purification “Synexis” System is keeping everyone as safe as possible.)
