In a small town in southwestern Idaho, SaraLee
St.Amor leads an apparently conventional life, while quietly hustling
pool on the side – a fact that she judiciously hides from her
fiance, Robert. When a tall and mysteriously well-dressed Korean
woman appears in town, SaraLee suddenly finds her carefully constructed
life threatened. A uniquely American fairy tale unfolds as SaraLee
tries desperately to juggle the needs of the present with the overwhelming
and inescapable desires of the past.
Directed by: Kirsten Brandt

Stage Manager: Debbie Luce*
* Member of Actors' Equity Association, the Union of Professional Actors and Stage Managers in the United States.
