A NATIONAL NEW PLAY NETWORK ROLLING WORLD PREMIERE!

A meditation on the connections between past, present, and future, and on the choice between speaking up and speaking out regardless of the consequences or remaining silent for the sake of self-preservation.

This play runs 90 minutes without an intermission

Executive Producer: Mrs. Roberta Golub
