“A warm, but unstinting look at the burdens and rewards of caring for a loved one with special needs.” —Time Out Chicago.

A birthday party…two surprise guests…one unexpected evening.

Anxiety-ridden Carol (Lisa Coveney) is determined to have an intimate family dinner party for her disabled son who is turning twenty-one. Everything is going wrong. Her estranged ex-husband (Brian Hayes) drops in unexpectedly after years of having nothing to do with her or their son’s disability. Her daughter (Katie Whitney) reveals that she has a new boyfriend (Chris Krenz), who Carol has never met, who will also attend. And Carol’s son and caregiver are late…very, very late to the party. Lenore Ferber and Michael Haifleigh play the older generation of this clan confronting the possibilities of reconciliation, the power of the past, and the irresistible pull of family.

“A lively and moving comedy-drama… breathing with real, complicated life…buoyantly entertaining.” – The New York Times
