These interactions reveal relationships in crisis and people who are not who they seem to be illustrating what happens when we make mistakes and have to live with the consequences.

The cast will include Ian Merrill Peakes (Pete/Nick/John), Karen Peakes (Jane/Sarah), Susan Riley Stevens (Sonja/Valerie) and William Zielinski (Leon/Neil).

The production team will be comprised of scenicdesigner Glen Sears, lighting designer Shon Causer, sound designer Paul Winnick, and costume designer Julia Poiesz.
