When Melinda and Jasper invited a few friends over for the Fourth of July, they didn't expect the debate to heat up so quickly. As their glowingly expectant friends clash with their adamantly childless landlords, Melinda and Jasper are torn over their future. Their single friend just wants to get high.

In this funny and thought-provoking new play, Rebecca Gilman (author of Spinning into Butter and Boy Gets Girl) explores the mysteries of life-changing decisions, biological imperative, free will, and sangria.
