An American Family Tragedy

In a family ripped apart by forbidden desires, secrets, crossfire communications, and crippling fears that together create a stranglehold on their willingness to forgive, its members descend into a whirlwind of anger that threatens to destroy them all.

Redemption is a poignant, dead serious, timely comment on the highly polarized, surface celebrated society in which we are living today, where things on the outside are not what they seem on the inside. And this family can no longer hide that fact.

This play begs to be performed on stage by actors in search of challenges, and played to an audience who may well see reflections of themselves and their lives in the characters and situations the play lays before them.

Redemption dares to go beneath the finely fractured veneer surface of well-being that lies within the larger context of an American society that is gripped by extraordinarily high stress and polarization. Though perhaps difficult for many to perceive at first glance, the play intends to inspire healing or at least the start of it.
