Fuselage by Annie Lareau

Fuselage by Annie Lareau

Actor and playwright Annie Lareau combines humor and compassion to reflect on her experience surrounding the Pan Am 103 bombing over Lockerbie, Scotland. Meant to be on the flight with 35 Syracuse University classmates, she was left behind in London. Her narrative weaves the lives of young artists with the voices of Lockerbie locals who responded to the tragedy, set against the backdrop of prophetic nightmares and a terrorist plot. Through grief, media scrutiny, and self-punishment, Lareau’s journey becomes a poignant tribute to treasuring relationships in an unpredictable world.
