Morning After Grace: January 23, 2020, performance at 7:30 PM; Offscript event starting at 6 PM

“There aren’t many plays that focus solely on retired and retiring Baby Boomers in a meaningful way. This play is a rare and delightful instance of serving a community of folks who somehow never thought they would age, but are now elders. As one of them, I feel a real kinship to this material that blends humor and real heart-felt insight, creating a lovely and loving theatrical event.”
–Janet Allen, Executive Artistic Director

Enjoy food and cocktails courtesy of Conner’s Kitchen + Bar before experiencing this comedy with heart.  Morning After Grace follows three neighbors in a Florida retirement village as they wake up one morning to find their lives unexpectedly tangled together, adding a new wrinkle—and a new sparkle—to their golden years.
