Night Moths on The Wing

(5m – 1f / 100 minutes)
When rebel General Victor Maylor is arrested and secretly delivered to an unofficial prison camp, he expects to be executed…but chief interrogator Michael Shaw does not want him dead–not yet. Shaw wants information and will do whatever he needs to get it. But while the men relentlessly engage in a battle of wills, are they blind to a more elusive enemy that could destroy them both?

“The play is a compact and compelling examination of two fundamental questions: who is trustworthy, and what is true. They are questions that we all could stand to examine a bit more closely, and works of art such as this play can aid in that process. Wherever you are, if you have the opportunity to see Night Moths on the Wing, or anything by the eloquent and thought-provoking Kimberly Kalaja, I recommend you take advantage of it.”
