2m, 2f November, 1978. Wade Minnick, 16, is a slender, effeminate bookworm in suburban Miami. With his distracted mother out playing Bridge, and his pilot father away on a trip, Wade settles down in the family's showpiece living room to read A Passage To India. His volatile brother Chip, 17, takes off on a dubious errand, leaving Wade alone with Chip's foxy pothead girlfriend. "Freak" Tammy teaches "brain" Wade more about life and about himself than he could learn from a dozen novels. And when Chip returns, having scored and snorted some serious drugs, Wade's gonna need every ounce of his newfound courage and compassion.

Full-Length Play "A slow-burning, perceptive chamber drama about sacrifice and betrayal, honesty and self-delusion." -John Thomason, Miami New Times We expect a lot from the people we love: a clean criminal record, a lack of sadistic tendencies, a quick, "I'm alive," every two years or so. Unfortunately for Marian, her son Paul falls short of everyone's expectations- he's in jail for aggravated assault after bailing out of rehab, which she only finds out after his girlfriend Shelly shows up unannounced. Despite what it looks like, Shelly says, Paul's actually turned a corner. He's sober (thanks to her), he's working, and he's really in jail because of an overreaction. Marian wants to put up her car for Paul's bail, but her girlfriend Beth and friend/landlady Nat are skeptical. While Beth is almost willing to give Paul a second (or a hundredth) shot, Nat is a little less optimistic (and a little more sauced). If they're all going to be a family again when Paul returns, it will take more than weekly donuts and microwaved leftover pizza to teach them how to love. (Cast: 4F, 1M )
