Show Info
The Word @ The Road reading of Gay Walch’s A History of Stone.
Playwright: Gay Walch
Director: Susan Diol
Featuring: Julia Manis, Kris Frost, Leon Russom, Janet Chamberlain, and Dor Gvirtsman.
It’s Memorial weekend and 37-year old Melissa arrives at her family’s ancestral home to celebrate the holiday. She shows up with good news only to discover a web of entrenched conflict awaiting her. A History of Stone is a family drama which wrestles with the bargains and barters that family members make in the name of love and loyalty but which contain elements of self-sabotage. The play asks, “Even well into adulthood is it ever possible to escape the God-like hold of a parent?”
THE WORD AT THE ROAD
