Beautiful little play about some really big things. Tender, delicate, really funny.

A bittersweet play. Exploring many emotions and the tumultuous after-effects of grief on a small family. Took a while for this one to fully settle in. These characters each have many layers. Sprinkled with a bit of weirdness / questionable incest? For good measure. Interesting read!
