Don't miss the World Premiere of Baggage Claim
October 9-18 at Cook Theatre Sarasota

​Lifeline Productions is proud to announce the upcoming world premiere of Baggage Claim, a funny, intimate, and deeply relatable solo show performed by Danielle Jacobs and directed by Meg Gilbert.


Set in a bustling airport terminal, Baggage Claim uses everyday travel mishaps – delays, missed connections, lost-and-found, and final boarding – as a backdrop to ask a central question: What happens when we’re forced to sit with everything we’ve been running from?

What starts as an ordinary travel delay rapidly transforms into a powerful reckoning with trauma, stigma, and the courage it takes to forge your own path toward healing. By confronting the silence that so often surrounds mental health, Danielle dares to speak the truth. Her story offers a profoundly moving reflection on the invisible emotional weight we packed long ago and never fully set down.

 

​Join us for unforgettable theater that transforms personal narrative into shared healing and sparks the conversations that matter most.
