Love-Lies-Bleeding
A Play
What's it about
Have you ever wondered what holds a family together when memory fades and secrets surface? Explore the raw, unsettling landscape of a family confronting its past as a son makes a controversial choice for his dying father, a decision that forces everyone to question the very nature of love, loyalty, and letting go. You'll discover the tense dynamics between a man losing his memories, his ex-wives who remember everything differently, and a son trying to control the final act. This is a powerful look at how we construct our own histories and the painful, sometimes beautiful, collision that occurs when those stories are challenged.
