Coal Creek Theater of Louisville presents
The Women of Lockerbie
by Deborah Brevoort
Directed by Larisa Netterlund
A mother from New Jersey roams the hills of Lockerbie, Scotland, hoping to find any remembrances of her son who perished seven years ago in the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103. She meets the women of Lockerbie, who have been fighting the U. S. government to obtain permission to gather remnants of the crash so they may wash and return clothing to the grieving families of the victims. Penned in the style of Greek tragedy and inspired by a true story, The Women of Lockerbie is a poetic drama and testament to empathy, dedication and the triumph of love over hate.

Reviews and Testimonials
“This is an exquisite production. These performances alone make the show worth seeing. Steve Rausch is one of my favorite actors and he lives up to my expectations with a subtle and moving performance. Credit also goes to Larisa Netterlund's intelligent direction… Grief doesn't go away. Loss still hurts, but we can choose how we handle what comes next. The Women of Lockerbie captures this and will challenge you. Also if you tear up a little. That's ok. It's the show asking you to release it… At any rate. I hope you choose to go see this wonderful show.” - Dave Dahl, Guest
