About the event

When their fiercely independent mother, Opal Mae, passes away, four estranged sisters return to their childhood home to sort through the remnants of her life—and their own tangled pasts. What begins as a simple task of packing boxes soon unravels into a journey of grief, guilt, laughter, and long-buried secrets.


In the heart of a cluttered living room filled with memories, Jolene, Merritt, Magnolia, and Wrenlee confront the echoes of their upbringing, the weight of what was said—and unsaid—and the legacy of a woman they all knew in different ways. Joined by Delilah, Opal’s spirited granddaughter, and Eliza, the unexpectedly insightful hospice nurse, the women must decide what to keep, what to let go of, and how to move forward.


What She Left Behind is a powerful, poignant, and often humorous exploration of sisterhood, healing, and the stories we inherit.


Some things are harder to throw away than others.
