About the Play
Can we ever really know our children? And what do we become, when darkness claims them? A year after their son commits a vicious school shooting, Sheridan and Jane come together in the New Mexico desert to reinvent themselves. But that falls apart when they meet Soledad, a casino girl with a gift for poker.
