Human trafficking is alive and well in pre-Civil War Kellington, NY, where it's just days before Independence Day. However, a duplicitous mayor who has secretly made his fortune in that very industry, has no intention of abiding by the law. As he clandestinely orchestrates a large shipment of human cargo, he banks on a much ballyhooed visit of a famous author to keep the town distracted. But unseen forces might have other plans. Based in historical context, this play showcases a critical part of American history that is currently being censored and rewritten, but is as relevant today as it was hundreds of years ago.
