ANGELS FALLING
Photo from Staged Reading at Rivers and Roads Cafe in Chicago
Description:
Deep in the woods of a small South Carolina town, a teenage girl
disappears. Her boyfriend, who was the last to see her alive, claims an angel
killed her. As the case makes national news, it’s clear the town would rather
label the boy a murderer than face the possibility of an angel, despite the
unexplainable evidence found at the scene. Emma, desperate to believe in
something, begins pulling at the threads.
Angels Falling is a southern ghost story about faith and proof, about what
a town owes the people inside it, and how badly we want a sign that
someone is watching.
