A Rock Sails By
A comedy by Sean Grennan
A one-of-a-kind asteroid is on a course to pass by Earth. Three unlikely companions engage in clear explorations of science, belief, and the unknown in this witty play. Balancing humor with heart, the play reminds us that even brief passing encounters can challenge assumptions and leave a lasting impression.
