Set
in rural Mississippi, this coming of age ghost story is deeply rooted in
the life of a small southern family on the verge of transformation. The
unrelenting July heat presses in on seventeen-year-old Ace and his mother Lily
as they dig their way out of the past.
It’s
a story about letting go and shedding what is no longer necessary in a world
full of secrets, ghosts, and memories that hold on tight. Poetic, dynamic,
lyrical and hard-hitting, this unique piece of theater sheds light on the
enduring southern spirit and the ties that bind.
