MY WANDERING BOY
by Julie Marie Myatt

March 30 - May 6, 2007
SCR Segerstrom Stage

Emmett has gone missing. Everyone wonders why. A great athlete, exceptional student, charming and charismatic, he dropped off the radar after college, and now his parents have hired a retired cop to find him. The search begins with his boots—discovered on a homeless man—and leads along the highways of Emmett’s life to the men and women, friends and strangers, who came under his spell. He drew them in, and then moved on. And the intriguing mystery of his life is all that remains with those who wait for Emmett to return.
