Sleeping Dogs
By Robert John Ford
Winner of the 3rd Annual Iowa Playwrights Workshop
Directed by Josh Visnapuu
January 23-February 7, 2009
Sleeping Dogs centers around two mothers who are trying to uncover the facts surrounding a car accident that has left one woman’s son dead and the other woman’s son comatose. Their investigation, which leads to surprising and disturbing revelations, ultimately forces the mothers to re-examine the identities of both themselves and the sons they thought they knew so well. Loosely based on a true story, Sleeping Dogs examines the complex and very personal reasons why some people are content to accept matters as they appear to be while others are compelled to seek the truth at any cost.
