'Tess left her small country town in the back of a police wagon after confessing to lighting a fire which devastated the town and killed her best friend. Years later, she's back and most of the town are not happy to see her. Her boyfriend is now engaged to the local police sergeant. His brother is a firefighter who remembers the fire vividly and her grandmother has denounced her publicly and is demanding Tess leave town immediately. The main reason for Tess's return is her mentally challenged brother who is delighted to see her. Tess looks to be settling back in until another fire breaks out and she is the prime suspect. Torn between leaving with her brother or staying to fight for her ex, "Flame Trees" is the story of one woman's fight for redemption.' (Source: Theatre Works website)
