"A wonderful performance! The play is a poignant dialogue about home, loss, and the search for meaning in life. A contemplation on how difficult it is to find your light. Superb acting job!"—Ellen Vayner (Audience Member)

ABOUT INTO THE HEART OF ONE STAR

Icarus is gone but his father Daedalus is left to wonder about the flight that went so wrong. Could he have prevented it all and should he now choose death? Dagny, a “simple woman from Siberia,” begins in a U.S. secret intelligence interrogation room, and rises to become a leader in science, business, and space flight all the while wishing for a home she is not sure existed. Both journeys reflect on each other in a duet about yearning, loneliness, navigating this world, and seeking the light beyond.
