Rooms of Experience, Act 3

 By Steffany Sommers

Starring Patty McCormack as Ada Wells

 and Dan Lauria as DA Harvey Davis

Everything converges.

The courtroom becomes the center of gravity.

 Every choice Dana made now has a witness.

Alexis puts Ada on the stand.

 And for the first time, the story is told without protection.

No strategy.

 No framing.

 Just truth.

Ada speaks about the years.

 The fear.

 The promises she made when no one else would.

 About loving someone the world was never built for.

The room changes.

Disability rights advocates clash with prosecutors.

 Expert testimony collides with lived experience.

 The line between justice and cruelty grows thinner by the minute.

Harvey pushes for a conviction.

 The system demands closure.

 The media waits for a headline.

Dana is forced to decide who she is when the rules stop helping.

Not as a prosecutor.

 As a human being.

The verdict comes down.

 And nothing about it feels simple.

In the end, there is no victory.

 Only consequence.

 Only reckoning.

Act Three asks the final question.

What do we owe each other

 when love is the only thing left?
