"Weldon Rising," by Phyllis Nagy, is a play about catharsis, heat, and an understanding of joy through the experience of unimaginable pain.

As the city heats up, electric appliances break down. A panicked reporter describes conditions over a malfunctioning radio.

Jimmy appears to whisk Natty away. They rip open the map, revealing what lies beyond. They disappear. "Time to fly, Natty Weldon."
