"Commencement" (or should it really be entitled "Promotion?") is about two grandmothers coming together to watch their granddaughter graduate from fifth grade. Divorce, however, has turned what should be a happy occasion into one full of awkwardness. On the surface this is a simple play with simple dialogue, but there is a great deal going on just beneath that surface. It's a quick read. Quit reading my recommendation and read this play! ”
