Produktbeschreibung
Straight On To Stardust, the first full-length play by two-time High Plains Book Award winner Craig Lancaster, opens with a dead father, a son who made a promise to him, and an old dog who's along for the ride. As Clinton Cobb carries his dad's body from Billings, Montana, to burial in Albuquerque, New Mexico, he must confront his memories, the steadily worsening weather, and the hopes and fears of his adult daughter and his ex-wife back home. As Clinton draws nearer to his destination, his past comes full circle and forces him to confront the pain he has buried deep and the details of his past he hasn't shared with those who love him. It's an examination of love, loss, and longing, one that attempts to bridge the chasms that develop among family members who don't know how to talk to each other. The play made its world premiere in October 2023 with a production by Yellowstone Repertory Theatre, a professional troupe based in Billings, Montana. It ran for nine performances, playing to sold-out audiences and drawing rave reviews.
