    A thought-provoking play about parenthood and boundaries, wonderfully produced on the THEATRICAL SHENANIGANS podcast!

    I really think this is a play parents need to see, at any stage of parenthood. Lou is a refreshing voice of reason! A brilliant snapshot of family dynamics, ground rules/morality and love.

    We had the great privilege of producing this place for the audio play podcast Theatrical Shenanigans and it was a joy to create! Lisa has wonderfully demonstrated how complex the relationship between parents and children can be. I also loved the very opposite characters in Sally and Lou and the way they want to deal with things. Its a brilliantly written play and would work just as well live as it does as an audio.

    As much as some folks raise their kids to take the initiative, there are still some parents who resent that very same initiative when it doesn't match said parents sensibilities. Lisa Quoresimo gives us one such parent. And in a refreshing turnaround, it's not an out-of-touch dad this time. Lou wants his daughter to stay in touch even as she moves on with her life but mother Sally has a more restrictive take on things. Sally isn't a bad mom, just... not ready to let her daughter take a different path. This is very relatable content given a fresh spin.

    Wow. The world needs more of these dads and less of these moms. LISA QUORESIMO presents a moment... a stressful moment... between mother and father as they negotiate a new relationship with their grown daughter. Too many times, parents raise their kids to fly on their own, and then they are shocked when their kids soar beautifully in a different direction. What a wonderful reminder to love them for who they are...not who parents think they should be.

    When your grown-up child flaunts her new found independence, it's hard for a parent to take or understand. Lou and Sally have a difference of opinion about how to approach their daughter. The dialogue is very realistic. Every parent...actually everybody will go through something like this. Bless Lou who has a level head.
