    Wow. I don't think I have the words to describe the way this play touched my heart. Beautiful is an understatement. This play perfectly encapsulates the familial drama we all live through but gives us a very interesting circumstance. I would love to see this play produced. If not, I would be more than happy to produce it. This play inspired me to take a look at some other work by Cappiello. After briefly scanning through the other plays, I cannot recommend Wesley Cappiello enough. A talented writer indeed!!!
