Gibraltar is a powerful drama that explores how we deal with grief. The play, written by Octavio Solis, explores the universality of love and death through multiple stories. It follows Amy, a San Francisco artist whose husband has died. With the help of the mysterious Palo, who is searching for his runaway wife, and through the stories of other people’s troubled relationships played out in Amy’s memory, she begins to shape her life without her husband. There will be a talk following the Thursday performance. Gibraltar.
