Theo Chester's play that asks how we can create a better future.
While the people of the town starve, the rich hoard the gold and the grain. To keep the peace, those in charge do what they have always done: use Jacob. He cures the ill, but he also decapitates those accused of stealing food.
But Jacob thinks he can keep the peace better if he stops murdering people. All he needs is to get behind his idea for him to heal full-time, but he’s not the only one with plans: his wife and one of the town’s elite are pushing for more radical solutions that risk tipping the balance in dangerously uncertain ways.
