BLANK at The Whitefire Theatre
in association with Bryan Rasmussen and the Whitefire Theatre
With all the media hype today about celebrity and international adoptions, Stanton describes from an adoptee's point-of-view the prospect of meeting his birth mother and muses what it all means regarding identity. Playing 12 characters, Stanton explores every avenue that could possibly define him as a man ultimately discovering the horrific truth of his birth, an instinctive love for his birth mother and a grateful dedication to his adoptive family.
