CONTENT WARNING: This play contains graphic discussions of sexual assualt.
Set during the graveyard shift at a Seattle crisis call center in 1984, the empathetic Hannah is tasked with training the charming new hire, Nick. The team spends their evening navigating both personal revelations and calls from women experiencing eerily similar crises. As the night deepens, the calls connect, threads appear and the mystery is closer than you think. On the Line explores how women learn to trust their instincts in a world that insists the danger is under control… until it’s already too late. Loosely inspired by Ann Rule’s real life experience with serial killer, Ted Bundy.
STARRING: Emily Clark, Lucas Alifano, and Jeff Scot Carey
