Highlights
Synopsis
For six years, Tomby has deceived his family, manipulating them into catering to his wishes.
His twin brother has tried to kill him, his sister is in love with him, and her fiancé wants him dead.
With his father suffering brain damage from a Navy wound, it’s up to hardworking Mom – who knows everyone’s secrets – to hold the family together.
Winner of an NEA grant when presented at Actors Studio and produced on PBS Television Theatre with Richard Dreyfus and Geraldine Fitzgerald, Untold Damage is an unusual family story.
Press Reviews
"Murderously funny, moving play... It focuses on the various natures of true love."
— L.A. Times
"Off-center comedy drama of the Jerome family's coming of age, in spite of bizarre behavior madness, duplicity and even a touch of incest... [It] has truly touching moments... Mr. McKay's writing is at top form, powerfully funny and wise."
— Variety
"Hilarious, stirring and deep."
— Herald Examiner
