CENTER STAGE
It's New York, Sept. 12, 2001 and everyone in the city is dealing with the tragedy in their own way. The Mercy Seat tells the story of Ben and Abby, two young professionals who have been having an affair for the past four years. Ben sees the city's tragic upheaval as a chance for him to "disappear" from his responsibility-laden life and escape to a new existence with the woman he really loves - Abby.
