"Exploration of longing and hope: Longing for a lost love connects Jane to Penelope. While Penelope waits for Odysseus to return from the Trojan War, Jane's husband was lost to 9/11 [the terrorist attacks on America]. Penelope kindles an eternal hope for her husband's return, yet Jane is counting on the miraculous for her reconciliation. Do you believe in miracles?' (Alley Theatre promotional flyer)
