Dot at Brookfield Theatre

Spend the holidays with the Shealy family at their home in the heart of a West Philly neighborhood. Dotty is getting older and needs the help of her part-time caregiver Fidel and her oldest daughter Shelly. With her youngest daughter Averie and her middle child Donnie and his husband Adam coming to visit for the holidays, along with a surprise visit from a neighbor, there is a lot to do to prepare. As Dotty struggles to hold on to her memory, her children must fight to balance care for their mother and care for themselves. This twisted and hilarious new play grapples unflinchingly with aging parents, midlife crises, and the choices we make.
