Losing Daniel
by Lon Rogers

A playwright devotes his life to the smoke and
mirrors of the stage only to become entangled in his
own blurred inner narrative after the death of his
son. Grief does terrible things to those who deny it,
placing redemption just out of reach and always one
step away. The play reminds us that we, all of
us, in our attempts to grasp the imponderables of love
and loss, find truth elusive. Perception becomes
Truth, our truth, for it is the only reality we know.
