Peterboro, NY, 1839. An enslaved young woman named Harriet, who has slipped away from a Syracuse hotel and the Southern family who owns her, finds temporary safety in an attic room in the home of abolitionist Gerrit Smith. Frightened and confused, she awaits her departure on the dangerous journey to Canada on the Underground Railroad, and spends an absorbing hour with the young Elizabeth Cady, fiery advocate for women’s equality. In a place where ideals meet experience and the aspirational collides with the personal, there lies the hope of awakening. A world premiere by award-winning playwright and Syracuse Stage associate artistic director Kyle Bass.
