A newlywed interracial couple moves into an old Victorian home in the San Francisco Bay Area, but an act of violence leaves young Adeline a widow. Troubled with grief and struggling to raise her daughter alone, Adeline reaches out to the community and learns of the long, tumultuous history of the house and the people who have lived there. As their folk-like tales play out before her, they paint a picture of the past, present, and future of a community haunted by the ghosts of heartache and racial tensions and their hope to change things for the future. (This play was specially commissioned by Playscripts for high school actors.)
