DIRECTED BY DAWN M. SIMMONS
Kenneth works at a bookstore and spends his evenings at the local tiki bar. But when he’s suddenly laid off, his carefully ordered world starts to shift—pushing him into unexpected friendships, unlikely courage, and a life he never imagined. Touching, funny, and quietly profound, this Pulitzer Prize-winning play explores how even the smallest acts of kindness can shift a life—and maybe even save one.
“It will restore your faith in theatre’s elemental storytelling powers.” – The Observer
