This play is wise, mature and a little sad in its exploration of the next steps to take after damage is done. Do we rebuild from what's left over? Do we throw everything out to start from scratch.
Again, Nora Louise Syran excels in setting, mood, atmosphere, just as in all the plays of her "The Twelve Days of Christmas in France" series. There's an awareness of fragility and necessary change in this short play, but also mutual understanding and awareness. "Seven Swans a Swimming" is a sigh of realization.
