That Water Moment

by Sara Jean Accuardi

A 10-minute play about parenting and struggling with the unknown.

"Most touching was Sara Jean Accuardi’s “That Water Moment,” which hinged on the balance of frustration and faith in the lives of young parents (played by Kerry Ryan and Isaac Lamb) struggling with the care of a developmentally disabled child." - Marty Hughley, The Oregonian

    Heartbreaking and spot on, thank you for writing this. The despair and pain parents feel and the need to believe in miracles is beautifully written. Fantastic!

    What a sad, moving play. The despair experienced by two parents of a developmentally challenged child - with little hope for change - is palpable, poignant, and heart-rending. A wonderful bit of writing.
