The Coast Starlight

Set aboard a train traveling the scenic route from Los Angeles to Seattle, The Coast Starlight by Keith Bunin is a poignant and imaginative story about strangers brought together by chance and changed by the conversations—spoken and unspoken—that unfold between them.

As each passenger grapples with their past and dreams of a different future, this journey becomes a moving meditation on hope, reinvention, and the transformative power of connection. Join us for a multimedia theatrical experience that celebrates the beauty and unpredictability of life on the rails.
