This "bold, artful" (The Washington Post) immersive theatrical event carries us between a suburban basement and the jungle of Vietnam. When Jude enters her estranged father's basement on the night of his funeral she unleashes his secret past. As she digs, two worlds collide, challenging everything she always believed about her family.
