Brief Synopsis:
To beget or not to beget? That is the question. At a Fourth of July backyard barbeque, three couples and a single friend discuss all sides of the pros and cons of starting a family. With generous use of humor, the play explores both the surface interactions and deeper undercurrents of contemporary life - and whether or not to bring a baby into it. The debates of life-choice issues people all cope with are lively, funny, and intelligent, affecting both the mind and the heart. The newest hit play from the acclaimed author of Spinning into Butter and Boy Gets Girl.

Roles:
Dan - late 20s to late 30s, married to Windsong. Wants to do it differently than the way his parents raised him.
Jasper - late 20s to late 30s, married to Melinda. Not sure he wants kids but doesn't want to tell his wife, whose clock is definitely ticking.
