About the Show

Wheelhouse Theater Company presents the world premiere of this offbeat meditation on the confounding business of contemporary parenthood.

In a bucolic Brooklyn park, Kris and Danny meet for their respective kids' first play date. While commiserating about the stresses of parenting, a precarious emotional relationship forms between them. When one of their children is inexplicably injured, the inevitable fall-out sends their spouses, Donna and Veronica, down a self-destructive path in search of the truth, no matter how superfluous.
