Originally staged in collaboration with Frantic Assembly, this is a complex and intense portrait of the mechanics of a family and a marriage. Bob and Fran have worked hard to give their four children the opportunities they never had. Now, with the kids ready to make lives of their own, it’s time to sit back and smell the roses. But the change of the seasons reveals some shattering truths. Through the eyes of four siblings, who struggle to define themselves beyond their parents’ love and expectations, we see this once close knit family split apart and then tentatively take the first steps to re-tie those precious family bonds.
