Announcing our next showcase, Gone Are The Flowers on August 23 at 8 pm!
Director Laurie Maria Cabral presents a stage reading of a new original work. Written by Allen Jeffries, HITW presents Gone Are The Flowers: An American Tragedy. A tale that starts with a normal get-together between friends and ends in a dark turn as the political power shift threatens the current power structure as well as the lives of anyone who does not conform.
Single dad John Bixby and his kid Ty are having a little party with their neighbors. None of them have any idea the night will end in revolution and death. When old college roommate Phil and his new girlfriend Tina arrive, they bring more than cake and beer, they bring a message from the globally popular internet influencer, Rust…an ominous message that may end civilization as they know it. What starts as a simple gathering soon turns into a frightening decent into chaos as the fabric of society suddenly unravels all around them. When the true intent of Rust’s message is revealed, the friends find themselves in a desperate fight for their lives.
There will be a talkback with the writer after the show!
