    Summary

    In 1945 Steve Rogers crashed the Valkyrie into the Arctic Ocean and was never recovered.

    In 2019 Bucky Barnes is walking along the beach below the decommissioned lighthouse where he lives with his sixteen month old daughter when he finds the body of a man washed up in the surf, half frozen but miraculously alive.

    Bucky manages to revive him, but finds that the stranger has no memory of who he is or how he got here aside from a name: Steve. Snowed in by a blizzard soon after and unable to get Steve a medevac, Bucky discovers that the funny, good-hearted man slips into the fabric of his and Alice’s life faster than he would have thought possible. The two are undeniably drawn to each other, but as their feelings grow so does the looming possibility that the answer to the question “who is Steve?” might be much more complicated than either of them realized.

    “It is not just a song. It is a wounded heart, torn from the chest bloody and beating and held out for the world to see.”

    There is no easy way to speak one’s truth, much less to sing it. Peregrine seeks comfort. The Playwright does their best to provide it.

    They struggle. A lot.
