The Tearful Assassin

In Vincent Truman's riveting play, "The Tearful Assassin", a teenager is kidnapped from her bed in the middle of the night. The detectives on the case come face to face with the parents, whose estrangement and bitterness thwarts the investigation from the start. As their daughter comes to terms with a horrific new life, under the control of a sinister stranger, the parents learn to cope by actually embracing the tragedy. This play explores the world of goodbyes and farewells, and the myriad of reasons we choose to use them. "There is a war out there, not between good and evil, but between truth and belief. And truth often has a hard time winning, because truth needs strength. Belief doesn't need anything." - Detective Fowler, "The Tearful Assassin"
