My Brother's Knife: A Madison Heights Odyssey
[for mature audiences]
July 12-24
This world premier follows the journey of a Monacan man (Wayne) living
in Madison Heights, Virginia in the 1980s. We meet Wayne as he is on
the verge of jumping off the 5th Street Bridge leading out of Amherst
County, VA into Lynchburg, VA. He is met by a dysfunctional police
officer (Deter) who manages to talk Wayne down from the bridge but this
sets off a chain reaction of events that lead to the unraveling of
Wayne's dark past involving the suicide of his brother and the death of
his father. This southern gothic story about Madison Heights, Virginia
examins the area's relationship with native Americans, its southern
heritage, and it's uncertain and fragile future.
