About the play

A remote cabin in the Alaskan wilderness. A blizzard rages outside.

In his isolation within this beautiful and lonely landscape, Henry Harry has achieved the absolute quintessence of solitude. Henry has a secret, one that has driven him to seek solace in this place. Foresaking all contact with the outside world, he lives alone, shut away from the maddening crush of humanity.In the dead of night, a strange woman in a wedding gown crashes through Henry’s door. Rosannah DeLuce is running, hell-bent, from something she can scarcely find enough words to describe. Frightened, frustrated, and far from ok, she collapses, emotionally and physically, and is left at the mercy of a stranger. Snowed in and trapped within the space of Henry’s cabin, each embarks on a journey into the darkness of the other, then deeper into their own. After anger, tears, a punch in the jaw, and one or two to the heart, they finally drag each other into the light of hope and acceptance.
