Peter and Mary are a young Mormon couple. He is a brilliant Harvard grad, recruited into the CIA in 1945, which leads him into an increasingly secretive and dangerous life. We follow the rocky landscape of their marriage through 1993, as their lives become inextricably tangled with the chaotic forces at work in the shifting terrain of American foreign policy.
The Design challenge in this play was to age the actors through a 60 year time span without the use of make up.
