A Heap of Broken Images

Indiana has an RV Hall of Fame.  Allegra didn’t know this until she took a road trip and met a German wanderer, a lottery winner, the Amazing Race cast and, more importantly, herself.

In her second solo show, A Heap of Broken Images, Allegra decides the best way to properly grieve for her grandfather and deal with the craziness of a relationship nearing its end is to take a couple weeks off work, point her convertible east, and drive.  The show centers around her adventures and people she met along the way and at its core is a show about finding yourself through travel in strange worlds.
