Prisontown at Savannah Rep

A Writer was driving down a dark country road outside of Atlanta several years ago when his phone lit up with a text from his brother, an immigration attorney. “How much of an activist are you?”

As he talks to those trapped in the prison system, the ghost makes a simple but incredibly hard request – SEE.
