WALLS
Directed and written by Ingrid De Sanctis Inspired by and in collaboration with JMU alumni Paul Holland.
JMU Premiere January 2020. Production made possible by the generous support of Paul Holland and Linda Yates.
The results of a DNA test lead newly engaged Abigail and Carver to an all-night conversation interrogating where they came from and where they are going. They thought they had talked about what it means to be an interracial couple but tonight they go back into their histories to figure out the story they will create together.
