Past Readings

“A lovely and thought-provoking piece, one that makes me laugh and wince at the same time. With all of us boomers coming through the chute, there is no question that it is timely. It feels like life —painful, funny, tender, warm, angry, sad, loving, conflicted, layered, frustrating, rewarding, whimsical, deep.  Just a first casual reading stimulated almost unstoppable discussion; it was clear that elements of the play popped open reservoirs that people have held for some time.”
-Susannah Berryman, Director of the Homecoming Players' concert reading
