Southbridge
by Reginald Edmund

A white widow is assaulted; an angry mob is at the jail house door, screaming “Lynch him!” The only way to untangle the truth about the events is for the accused, Christopher C Davis, to look into the events that have led him to a tree stump in Athens, Ohio, in the year 1881.

"[SOUTHBRIDGE] marks Edmund as a writer of omnivorous intellect and a lover of bold metaphors."

—Chicago Tribune

"Playwright Reginald Edmund demonstrates a keen sensitivity to his characters' psyches, leaving each one multidimensional and morally uncomfortable — some more so than others."

—Chicago Theatre Review

"An intricate and heartfelt theatrical experience."

—ChicagoCritic
