Summary
This play is about human loss, vulnerability, faith, courage, growth and an awakening. During a trip from California to Ohio, Jeremy begins a journey in which he challenges the world to think, "How does one shoe end up on the highway?" Through his photography, Jeremy attempts to draw attention to the stories behind the shoes. He wants to use his art to make people think. But when he lets his work "speak for itself" and one of the shoes' stories is discovered, Jeremy is not prepared for the answer that brings him face to face with reality.
