Synopsis

In this award winning play by Stuart Eugene Bousel, Bryon is in love with Patrick. Patrick is in love with Rebecca. Rebecca is getting over Doug. Doug fathered a daughter with Esther. Esther is Rebecca's sister. And that's just the tip of the ice-berg. In the grand tradition of the Shakespearean comedy and the French sex farce, comes a fast-paced, post-modern romance about love, sex, friendship, and how our lives are perceived through the eyes of the people who claim to love us the most.
