Broken for You

September 22 – October 15, 2006

by Stephanie Kallos
Adapted and Directed by Laura Ferri

Set in Seattle, this bestselling first novel by Seattle author Stephanie Kallos reveals how the lives of two women–septuagenarian Margaret Hughes and her quirky housemate Wanda Schultz – are both transformed when their paths intersect. A testament to surrogate families, an homage to the beauty of mended things, and a haunting glimpse into the history of WWII and its Jewish survivors, Broken For You is a lively, lovely, soulful book and Book-It is delighted to present its world-premiere stage adaptation.
