"September Skies" Light Up Odd Duck Studio

"September Skies" is a new play written and directed by Jim Moran, and is now showing at The Odd Duck Studio on Capitol Hill. It takes place during the afternoon and evening of September 10, 2001 and on the following morning of the infamous day of September 11, 2001 at Boston's Logan International Airport. The play revolves around a chance encounter between "Dave" (played by David Foubert) and "Amy" (played by Cheryl Platz) at the Boston airport, and explores how this chance meeting could have altered their destinies if they had had the courage to throw caution to the wind and had pursued their coup de foudre. Rik Deskin who plays a variety of characters including Airlines Agent, Lounge Guitarist, and Traveler rounds out the three-actor cast.
