The Horvath family forgives their trespassers — all but one. A mother's call for mercy clashes with a father's need for retribution when their daughter's murderer comes up for parole. Sharp jokes and tough love drive this searing and funny new drama, which unfolds at dinners from Thanksgiving to Easter. A modern American family asks a classic moral question: what can we do when "justice" is not enough?

“Bob Glaudini has an incredible ear for dialogue and a good sense of how modern people interact with one another.” — East Bay Express

“This will be the third play of Bob Glaudini’s I have directed, and I love returning to his work. He writes with a muscular spare lyricism and creates deep, meaty roles for actors. This play is propelled by magnetic characters, and takes place at the holidays where the quirkiest dynamics of everyone's family come out at full tilt. Bob imbues this darkly comic domestic drama with a soul-stirring poignancy.” — Peter DuBois
