Well written drama packed with surprises and an explosive ending. The actor playing the 15yr old son is amazing.

The only thing I found bothersome was the use of the word fag several times.

We loved the theater and the play. The staff was ultra-friendly and the playhouse comfortable.
Gigi Bermingham was fabulous and Nicholas Podany was incredible. The entire cast was excellent. The story was well crafted and kept our attention. We didn't see the surprise ending coming. The set was well designed. There was a lot of talent in this production, both onstage and behind the scenes.

Honestly, I don't think the story is original enough among family dramas. Yet, it's still a very good play to recommend. The production was pretty good too. I like the performance of the leading actress. I was really touched at the end of play.
