featuring JEFF SWEARINGEN as 'THE MAN' Introducing ANDY BALDWIN* as 'THE OTHER, OTHER MAN'
*APPEARING COURTESY OF ACTOR'S EQUITY ASSOCIATION
A darkly-comic journey of predetermined fate. Like an intricate philosophical riddle unraveling piece by piece, we discover a wealthy man with lots of material things, including a hand purchased on the black market. We meet the hand’s original owner who wants it back. Writer Madrid’s script moves beyond contract law into the realm of morality and ethics, and the ages old conflict between 'the haves and have-nots,' ownership vs. possession, and what controls the mind, body and spirit.
