Out of the Blue

Out of the Blue – Part 4 of Murray Mednick’s “The Gary Plays” – follows Gary to post-Katrina New Orleans, where his mother, Mama Bean, is clinging to life with the help of a respirator and her husband, Daddy-O. Faced with his mother’s request that he help her end her own life, Gary struggles with ghosts from his past.
