Sophie spends her days rehabilitating abandoned sea creatures, yet she still feels adrift herself. Juggling three moms—her birth mother, her adoptive mother, and her restless mother-in-law—she searches for the truth about her birth father.  As long-hidden truths come to light, Sophie finds healing, clarity, and a community ready to lift her up.

Tickets: $20
