    Just finished watching this online. It is a very powerful play about family and changes and the nature of unconditional love. The characters are very relatable and the story is moving. I hope this play gets a lot of productions!

    A powerful piece that proves the old saying that every story has two sides. The dialogue and conflict feel real and raw. But also hum all the right notes to make you smile and cheer the characters on. This piece stands on its own wonderfully but is also the perfect ending (for now) for audiences who have come to know and love the citizens of Wickham that Ladutke has introduced us to along the way of the Wickham Way Trilogy.
