This will be her first production as part of the Tulane season.Life and Limb is the story of homecoming. Franklin (Brendan Bowen) is a Korean War veteran having difficulties adjusting to life back in post-war New Jersey. Coping with depression, Franklin finds himself unable to find a job and disconnected from his wife Effie (Mary Katherine Brake). The veteran’s inability to rediscover happiness leads him to a repulsive job and his wife into the arms of another man. It is only in Franklin’s descent to rock bottom that he can begin his journey to redemption.
