Blur in the Rear View
2M / 1F , 90 min
Unseen for 8 years, a quiet, hardened, and heavily tattooed young man named Jasper appears one night, standing in the dirt road outside a modest small town home. The house may or may not belong to Rory, Jaspers high school girlfriend, who remembers him fondly, but has never spoken his name to anyone. Who Jasper is, where he has been, and his unspoken motives are slowly revealed during a startling chain of events in this drama.
"This is our third time hosting the James Rodgers Playwriting competition, and I have to say I think this is our best play yet."
