Beyond The Sea
By Kristen Da Silva
October 14-November 2, 2025
An empathetic romantic comedy about moving forward.
On a pier in a small town, two strangers who need a second chance begin a conversation that just might save them both. Gwen is a quick-witted loner selling tickets for a boat tour. Theo is a newly single man waiting for a long overdue date. As their conversation deepens, they explore love and loss, opening up to one another. Funny and hopeful, Beyond the Sea shows us that, sometimes, the most honest conversations are between strangers.
