    The Women of Lockerbie 

    By Deborah Brevoort

    Directed by Senior Theatre Major Emily Tritl

    Loosely based on the historical crash of the Pan Am 103, Women of Lockerbie by Deborah Brevoort tells the story of a New Jersey mother who travels to Lockerbie, Scotland where her son was killed in the plane crash seven years earlier. While there, she and her husband encounter a group of Scottish women who exhibit love instead of hate in this time of despair. Written in the poetic structure of a Greek tragedy, it is a tale of love triumphing over hate in the aftermath of a terrible tragedy.
