Theatre Transit presents The Goodbye Day by Andrea Halwas.
Synopsis: "If you live your life right, you never have to say goodbye." After being diagnosed
with a terminal illness, William faces a series of experiences that allow him to explore not
what his life would have been, but instead, what his death really means, both to his family,
and to his understanding of mortality and human kindness. This play explores the power of
sacrifice as the characters struggle to find meaning in their lives and ultimately discover if it is
possible to escape fate.
