I have never written a play that skimmed so close to real life before, and where it touched - the streets of Philadelphia, the world of messengers, the life of Pablo, the Avendano family - are the places the piece seemed to find root, find earth, find sky. The parts of the play that were imagined - what happens after one leaves their physical body - are where the play touched air, space and sky. Thank you to all who helped join earth and sky. (fb)
