How would you react if something precious you lost years ago comes back to you suddenly? What if you're not the same person who lost it?

Those are the questions dancing around Natalie Piegari's provocative new play, Safe As Houses. Pinky Swear Productions gives the piece its world-premiere production at the Logan Fringe Arts Space this October as the opener to Pinky Swear's 2017-2018 season. Piegari is a Pinky Swear company member, and the company helped develop the piece for more than a year.

"We feel that Safe as Houses is a really unique and vital piece of theatre and are proud that it comes from a local playwright who is a member of our company. It also beautifully aligns with our mission of showcasing complex women characters," says Karen Lange, Pinky Swear's Artistic Director. "We've long believed in this piece, and we're thrilled to be able to share it with the community at last."

In Safe As Houses, a violent storm brings more than just wind and rain as a patchwork family struggles to survive disasters-natural and otherwise. Isabel, Henry, and Nora are preparing their house for a storm when a knock at the door brings Isabel's past rushing in.

Safe as Houses explores time, what makes a family, and the endurance of love-the world Piegari creates is one you'll want to live in for a while.

Thursdays - Saturdays at 8 p.m., Sundays at 6 p.m., October 19 - February 11, 2017. Tickets & Passes On sale now-purchase them online on the Capital Fringe website or by calling (866) 811-4111.

Pinky Swear is a feminist theatre company that celebrates the diversity of women's experiences by telling inclusive and subversive stories.
