The play — written by Nell Voss in collaboration with production manager/Silent Theatre artistic director Tonika Todorova and the cast members — takes place in every room of the church and explores the emotional shockwaves of an unexpected death within a family and a church community. The audience is invited to enter and immerse themselves in multi-dimensional action that will fill up all the spaces in this real church where a family prepares to bury a young pastor, say their goodbyes, and maybe find out who killed him.
