What makes a great tragedy? High hopes? Hard luck? Harrowing, inevitable fate? Gale Theatre Co. set out to explore the secrets of tragedy and, along the way, made a play about it. Part hero's journey and part never ending stair case, Wail asks the question, how do we bare our humanityhumanely?

When a young woman arrives in an unfamiliar and strange town, she can't remember where she came from or how she got there. Time passes, seasons change, and she assumes a new life. As she learns more about the outside world, she also slowly discovers the horrors of her past. Painful realities and dreams collide in this lyrical drama.
