Who We Become: The Moonshot Tape is a solo drama by Deep Flight Productions, based on a play by Pulitzer Prize winner Lanford Wilson. Diane, a successful writer, returns to her Missouri hometown to help her ageing mother. Responding to questions from an unseen local interviewer, she revisits pivotal moments from her past. Written with Wilson's signature lyricism and emotional clarity, the play explores memory, identity and the moments when lives quietly change course. Performed at Haldane Theatre, it is suitable for adults aged 18 and over.
Why see this show?
A beautifully written monologue that earns every quiet moment — Wilson's language is precise and emotionally generous, and this production delivers it with care. A thoughtful solo show for those who appreciate theatre that trusts its audience.
