A new play by Catherine Filloux

Directed by Stan Cahill Starring Kimber Riddle and Steve Guevara

A woman's political choice. The trauma of captivity.

And what memory will finally come to hold.

While Ingrid Betancourt was running for President in Colombia in 2002, she was kidnapped by the terrorist organization the FARC. Details of Ingrid

Betancourt’s story can be found in the public record. This story is imagined as a two-person play based in part on those events.
