Written by Grace Epstein
Directed by Marta Backman Hyland
Cast: Leah Heisel as Hava, Burgess Byrd as Shirese, Hannah Goodman as Lyla & Liberty Fraysure
In this dramatic comedy, a lesbian couple has moved from a northern U.S. climate to a small, western Kentucky homestead. Hava (played by Leah Heisel) is a Jewish biologist at a local university and the very pregnant Shirese (Burgess Byrd) is an African-American English teacher at the same university. Joined by Hava’s straight sister, Lyla (Hannah Goodman), and a middle-aged, all-things-Kentucky, hands on woman (Liberty Fraysure), the four of them are both prepared and unprepared for 25 inches of snow, the onset of labor, and the secret about Lyla’s mother.
- Due to stuff that happens, “Rural Free Delivery” by Grace Epstein is postponed until October 2016.
