    Juntunen's "The First Yes" is a play to enjoy more than once. Its structure, its use of dialogue and commentary, will spark an audience's imagination. Its story of living and loss will touch an audience's emotions.

    A poetic play about two poets who spend their lives together, all the way to the end. They go through marriage, raising a daughter and a couple of dogs, publishing books and facing disease and death all in the space of their backyard. Juntunen portrays a shared life with all the dignity, grace, wit and courage in the face of pain and loss that entails.
