“I thought they’d be like us. But better than us. That’s what we worked so hard for. Wasn’t it?”
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, leaving us asking whether it’s possible to love too much.
The play delves into themes of love, loss, and the changing landscape of family life, highlighting the impact of these events on both the siblings and their parents.
