​Sunday, October 25th @ 7pm 

Brand-new stories both comic and poignant, spun into a moment in which many of us are both stuck in space yet emotionally adrift, having lost a sense of direction and seeking paths forward.

Finding Trails is an ongoing series commissioning new works of theater bringing artists and audiences together to ask - as access to the outdoors becomes simultaneously more vital and more threatened, how can we uplift our collective need for public lands and spaces?
