Directed by David Wayne Nelson, this play is set in a hospice and looks at the lives of three terminally ill patients; Joe, a working class father; Brian, a writer who is trying to get his lover and his funny and brassy ex-wife to be friends; and the elderly Felicity, who is waiting for her child to visit before she dies. Each of these characters, with their family members unfold their lives, their joys and regrets, and struggle with denial, bargaining, depression, and finally acceptance in this moving and often funny play.
“This amazing play will make you laugh and cry at the same time. Not to be missed.” – NY Times
