Lady February 28, 2008

In this brand new play by Craig Wright, a hunting trip in southern Illinois turns suddenly tragic as three old friends, caught up in the ever-tightening grip of an ongoing argument about the war in Iraq, reveal long-held political beliefs and discover that they may not know one another as well as they had believed. When one hunter's trusty gun dog, Lady, becomes lost in the woods, the friends will ultimately be forced to confront the most important question of our time, not "Is violence necessary," but, rather, "Can violence be beautiful?" As the truth emerges, individual motives become clear and alliances shift, until one thing seems certain: after this walk in the woods, nothing will ever, ever be the same.
