Route 66 has always drawn people looking for something.

Answers.
Connection.
Meaning.

A journey taken in memory of someone we love.
A chance encounter in a roadside motel.
A promise made twenty years ago.

Maybe it's not about the destination but about who we meet along the way.

The 2026 10-Minute Play Festival continues this weekend and next!
Performances: June 4, 5, 6 | 11, 12, 13

It starts with a daughter trying to tell her mother’s story.
About illness. About memory. About what really happened.
But the closer she gets… the less clear it becomes.

Kind of like real life!

WELL by Lisa Kron
