WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Business is at an all time low for Louise in her profession as a "consultant." So in order to keep her daughter April in school, she must sell an expensive family heirloom lamp at the neighbors' yard sale. April sneaks home to steal the lamp, but she is too late -- it has been intercepted by the quiet and bizarre couple next door.

13P, in association with Minetta Street Productions, presents the New York premiere of Sheila Callaghan's Crawl, Fade to White, directed by Paul Willis.
