When John Hall is awakened by the ghosts of his ancestors, he is forced to revisit the story of his entire life. As his young granddaughter Billie tries to keep him from death’s grip, she is confronted by truths she would never have imagined. Based on true events, Come Home – The Legend of Daddy Hall is told through poetic text, music and song.
