Gay parents have the same hopes for their kids as straight parents but their fears come from a very different place. Vaughan gives us a deeply personal monologue that ultimately captures a crucial moment in time while effortlessly embracing us with a familial love story rich in detail and heart.

Despite being direct address, it flows with the ease and intimacy of friendship. The backstory always feels active and important and the payoff is sublime and powerful.

A damn lovely piece of writing and a blessing to perform out loud. Try it, you'll love it.
