Danger and vicious humor collide in this shock revenging thriller!
SYNOPSIS
A National New Play Network Rolling World Premiere

three find themselves on a collision course with betrayal and revenge. This white-knuckled thriller promises plot twists, gasps and the gripping theatricality you’ve come to expect from Steve Yockey.
