Our Story
HUNDRED DAYS is the uncensored, exhilarating, and heartrending true story of how Abigail and Shaun Bengson met and fell in love, and how that love unleashed their terror of mortality. With magnetic chemistry and anthemic folk-punk music, the Bengsons explore the fundamental question of how to make the most of the time that we have.
In September 2018, the HUNDRED DAYS tour will launch at La Jolla Playhouse.
NY Times Critic's Pick HUNDRED DAYS ran at New York Theatre Workshop November 15-December 31, 2017.
