The Valley of the Shadow
By Laura Anthony
An act of restorative justice finds Orin, the victim of an anti-trans hate crime, living in the childhood home of the perpetrator. Newly alone and haunted by memories, he must sift through the relics of the past and grapple with the tragedies that turn young men into monsters. The Valley of the Shadow is a non-linear exploration of empathy and memory, queerness and race, accountability and survival. It is a love story, and, more often, a ghost story.

The WP Space Program is an initiative to offer discounted space at WP Theater’s home @ 76th and Broadway and to provide affordable producing options for our artistic community.
Our goal for the Space Program is to provide subsidized space to mission-aligned individual artists and small budget not-for-profit companies ($300,000 or less) who might otherwise not be able to produce because of the financial constraints of renting performance space.
