Signs of Life
On a magical night in New Jersey, the stars talk to Abe, Sal gets a magic tattoo and a journey begins. Abe and Sal take off across the country, following the stars and looking for Birth and Life. Signs of Life is loosely based on the Sarah and Abraham story from the Old Testament–spun out of the Holy Land and onto the Interstate Highways of the American West. The play is a comic meditation on faith, doubt and spirituality.
