Sally's Gone, She Left Her Name by Russell Davis

Sally wants to leave home, as soon as possible, for art school in New York. Her mother seems increasingly distracted, or absent, and her younger brother, Christopher, is no help. Her successful father may or may not be involved with a younger woman at work. After Sally has a confrontation with her father, her mother suddenly disappears in the middle of the night. The play is about the last two weeks in the life of a perfect American family. But as this family unravels, as words and longings are misunderstood, and things fall apart, a larger spirit in each of these characters begins to show signs of life. I first encountered the work of playwright Russell Davis . at the world premier of his FURTHER ADVENTURES OF SALY . I found myself hanging on every word and admiring Davis's singular communicatory skills more with each passing moment . amusing us more than a little en route with a verbal wizardry that warms and delights. Davis at the same time painlessly imparts a deeper universal meaning having to do with personal signposts lost and regained . -Nels Nelson, Daily News
