For 15 years, Karen Allen (age 73), actor and director of stage and film,
and Sarah T. Schwab (age 39), writer, director and producer, have enjoyed
collaborating on theatre and film productions, notably addressing oft-avoided
discussions about dying and loss. Their award-winning film, A Stage of
Twilight—written and directed by Sarah and starring Karen—is a “grass-
roots awareness campaign for end-of-life care and decisions.” It raises the
difficult question: “Whose death is it—who has the right to decide when,
where, how, and with whom someone dies?” Karen’s directorial debut, the
award-winning A Tree. A Rock. A Cloud., is a short film about the “passing
of wisdom from an older man to a young boy.” In 2025, Karen will be
directing her first feature film, The Batting Cage, with Sarah on the
production team. This film depicts how two sisters reconnect after the death
of their sibling. In her upcoming third feature film, Crybaby Bridge, Sarah
approaches suicide through the genre of psychological thriller. Please meet
Karen Allen and Sarah T. Schwab—friends and collaborators who “reach for
the light” while pursuing what they love.
"Loss ties us together as human beings; we must learn to respect
time and cherish loved ones."
