Overview
On the stage of the Drury Lane Theatre late at night, James Rumpely and Jane Armitage, two actors, rehearse over and over again scenes from a tragic play that may be their own lives. These are the parents of the notorious Christopher Rumpley who appears in Nigro's Horrid Massacre in Boston and Armitage, and the dark working out of their destiny is the prelude to the long dark chronicle of the Pendragon family in America.
