Description
This trilogy is about an American family’s personal relationship to 9/11 and how that ripples forward 10-15 years.
These plays stand alone beautifully, with no diminution in their impact by seeing or reading them alone or in any order… The polestar character of the trilogy, Jack, who remains an elusive offstage mystery, [haunts] all three plays. The plays all share an exploration of [an] extended and unusual family and their journeys to reconnect or escape one another… Three generations are united and separated by loss — loss created by divorce, death, dementia and the dislocation of self both geographically and physically.” (Janet Allen, Executive Artistic Director, Indiana Repertory Theatre)
