Jessie’s father is dead and her loveless marriage ended in divorce. As the play begins, Jessie announces that she is going to take her own life. This show explores unhappiness and tragedy and how they can swallow our world. Support American Theatre: a just and thriving theatre ecology begins with information for all.
