Synopsis

THE STORY: Over forty-eight hours in an Upper West Side apartment in Manhattan, four people attempt to bridge the gaps in their lives, heal old wounds and connect across seemingly unbridgeable cultural, conjugal and generational gulfs.

Press Reviews

"A gripping play about families and the relationships that hold them together or tear them apart. ”…an often gripping investigation of painful four-way family relationships…this rigorous study in five scenes never breaks…[the] agenda is profoundly political. But Pearson's triumph is that the politics are causal. They propel behavior, instead of the other way around. And that behavior is as integral to the character and dynamics as the space these four people share.“ —Los Angeles Times. ”The play shows skillful writing…and wit. Small wonder that the Taper's artistic director…placed himself at the helm for the world premiere of [the play]."
