About
From the playwright’s website: A mother from New Jersey (Rozzy Bliss) and her husband (Ryan Leidahl) roam the hills of Lockerbie Scotland, looking for their son’s remains, which were lost in the crash of Pan Am 103. She meets the women of Lockerbie (Emma Binkis, Violet Kravitz, Paige Harvey, I. Phoebe Faint, Reagan Blydenburgh, Riley Binkis, Cora Craigue), who are fighting the US Government (Riley Owens) to obtain the clothing of the victims found in the plane’s wreckage. Determined to convert an act of hatred into an act of love, the women want to wash the clothes of the dead and return them to the victim’s families. A poetic drama about the triumph of love over hate.
