Stamp collecting is far more risky than you think. After their mother's death, two estranged half-sisters discover a book of rare stamps that may include the crown jewel for collectors. One sister tries to collect on the windfall, while the other resists for sentimental reasons. In this gripping tale, a seemingly simple sale becomes dangerous when three seedy, high-stakes collectors enter the sisters' world, willing to do anything to claim the rare find as their own. Who knew stamp collecting could be so dangerous? Variety says "Unsurprisingly for a writer with extensive experience in TV police procedurals like 'NYPD Blue' and 'Law & Order: Criminal Intent,' one of Rebeck's strengths is her skill at stitching tension into every exchange."

Perusal copies of the script are available at the theatre and may be checked out for a $10 refundable deposit. Please forward this to anyoNe You think might be interested in auditioning for the show.
