Dixon* (as Rashad)***Members of Actors' Equity Association * A surprise proposal gift puts the future of Genesis and Rashad's relationship at risk when they are forced to confront a devastating secret from the past. *The Light* is a 70-minute, real-time rollercoaster ride of laughter, romance, and despair that uncovers how the power of radical love can be a healing beacon of light. *“What is impressive about the writing is how Webb keeps intensifying both the stakes and seriousness of the relationship even as she builds the threat of that which is tearing it apart.”* -Chicago Tribune *"I always want my work to be the NEON BLINKING SIGN in the DARKNESS saying, ‘HOPE THIS WAY.’ "* -Playwright Loy A.
