In this drama, a young lawyer struggles to decide whether to continue with the biggest case of her career or whether to walk away. Playwright and lawyer Pat Connelly says the play was inspired by the Supreme Court case involving the Westboro Church of Kansas. “I began to think about attorneys called upon to represent clients whose conduct and beliefs they find abhorrent, who must find a way to vigorously represent those clients.” These thoughts led her to create the world of Heartland, a compelling courtroom drama about the limits of free speech and family ties that bind.
Directed by Catherine Tripp featuring Sally Imbriano, David Johnson, Rebecca Kiser, Lenny Mendez, Nicole Ruthmarie, & Eamon Patrick Walsh.
