OFF PEAK
by Brenda Withers
RUN EXTENDED TO OCTOBER 8th
September 15 – October 8th in The Studio at SHADOWLAND STAGES
When two old flames run into each other on the evening commute, different views of the same past threaten to derail their connection. A new play about forgiving, forgetting, and the healing power of a good delay.
