Centered around a family struggling to reconnect despite prolonged estrangement and set in a world of clinical diagnosis, Dauterman's new play questions the separation between dreams and reality and explores the complexities of kinship, gratitude and forgiveness.

Tickets include a premier staged reading of this new play, wine and hors d'oeuvres, and Q&A with the playwright and creative team. All proceeds go towards supporting our upcoming sixth season, pairing a new translation of Pedro Calderón de la Barca's La vida es sueño by Shawn Morgenlander and a world premiere play by SWP Writer-in-Residence Iris Dauterman.

Save the date for our sixth season, running April 6-15, 2018 at The Clemente. Tickets and info coming soon.
