This ferociously dark comedy follows the idiosyncratic members of a very broken family who refuse to surrender to neighborhood criminal elements and would-be crooked cops. Three adult sisters join forces with their mother to solve a crime; with criminals and cops closing in on their home, and a father they do not trust, time is running out! A viciously funny satire and a moving meditation on forgiveness.
Performed on the Evjue Stage.
The play features foul language, stage combat, and the presence of firearms – none of which are fired.
