Living Image Arts presents three poignant, powerful and funny plays about the untold experiences of modern American life.
Have you ever come back to a home you don't remember?
From Hurricane-battered New Orleans to the holding cell of a Women’s Prison to the Jungles of the PI, the characters of these plays struggle, with beauty and humor, to return to a life now unrecognizable.

Counting
by Maria Gabriele
Directed by Christine Farrell
Wanda is on her way out of prison after six years. Gianna is on her way in. Stuck in the same holding cell, an extraordinary and intense friendship emerges. While doubt about life on the outside consumes Wanda, in a moment of selflessness she shares with Gianna her secret of how to survive on the inside. It is in the numbers.

New York artist, Tina (the Filipina Georgia O'Keefe) has returned to the Philippines after 10 years, 8 months and 27 days. But when her childhood frend Cris arranges a secret meeting, Tina discovers that she has become entangled with The Sparrows, a pseudo-terrorist organization, bent on bringing down the corrupt Capitalist Regime. Now they must both face the choices that life has forced upon them and the consequences of their lives apart. And before Tina is allowed to go home Cris has one more surprise for her long lost friend.
Last Call on Bourbon Street
