Description:
Plays & Players is proud to present this world premiere by local playwright P. Seth Bauer, writer of last season's 1812 Productions hit comedy, "The Karma Cookie." During a blinding snow storm on New Year's Eve, Leo and Betty Rosen recall a recent car crash involving their son, Daniel, and his long-time partner whom they never accepted. While debates on little league strategy, the frugality of firewood, and Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve ensue, unexpected visitors arrive at their Newtown, Massachusetts home, including Daniel himself. Early in the Mourning takes us through the emotional and unexpectedly humorous journey of familial love and loss, and the struggle for Leo and Betty to face reality before it is too late.
