Taren has 180 days to help her patients find meaning at the end of life...can she do it?
180 Days is the story of Taren Sterry's first six months working in hospice. While attending the University of California at Santa Cruz she embarks on a six month ethnographic field study to work with terminally ill patients and their families.
Taren eagerly anticipates having deeply spiritual encounters, but first she must learn how to survive in a foreign land, face the past and savor the taste of humble pie.

“A deeply personal labor of love, essentially beyond criticism…Jeffers’ gifts are undeniable…easily recommend this funny, touching testimonial to the power of sibling devotion.”
-LOS ANGELES TIMES
“Batman and Robin in the Boogie Down” is a touching, yet quirky
biographical tale of two siblings. The play chronicles their life and
loss, from the exuberant childhood games as Batman and Robin, to the
sudden passing of the older brother at the age of 33. In the first act,
we see that the sister has become ill after her brother’s death. She
tries a myriad of alternative treatments to get better but nothing
works. So she decides to go home to connect with her brother’s
spirit. In the second act, the brother comes back in spirit form to
answer some of her questions and to give her some peace and closure.
Both siblings tell their stories from their points of view through
flashbacks. It is a poignant story of two lives eternally intertwined
with a multitude of vibrant characters from their shared past in the
Bronx and beyond.
