Jake is a writer trying to find his way in his life and feels trapped in his relationships. He’s failing to move forward from his first wife’s death and has a troubled relationship with his second wife Maggie. Can Jake and Maggie rebuild and reunite, or are they destined to separate? Along the way we meet the other women in Jake’s life, including his daughter, his therapist, and his new love interest.

Production dates are March 12 & 13, 2022 at the Albany Barn.
