“A world pre­miere play writ­ten by 2018 Bethel Grad­u­ate, Wes­ley Lantz, this pro­duc­tion fol­lows the story of Adam Hei­land a cu­ra­tor of the Ann Ar­bor Pub­lic Li­brary. His in­tern, Geor­gia, one day brings up an old un­fin­ished man­u­script that has Adam’s name on it. Its ti­tle is ”Fog of War.” Adam takes it home and as he reads through it, the char­ac­ters from the play come to life in his head. As the story pro­gresses, a cou­ple of the char­ac­ters be­gin to ar­gue about whether Adam should fin­ish the script or not, and Adam be­comes ob­sessed and it be­gins to take over his life. Adam’s old fi­ancée, Ginny, comes back into his life, con­ve­niently at the same time that the man­u­script shows up. Every­thing from Adam’s past now starts to come into his pre­sent. Which char­ac­ters will win con­trol? His re­al­ity or the char­ac­ters in his head?”
