About the Play:
When Brooke Wyeth returns home to celebrate Christmas with her well-connected, conservative family, she arrives with a memoir that threatens to expose a painful chapter from their shared past. What begins as a seemingly festive reunion quickly unravels into a tense and deeply personal confrontation about memory, grief, politics, loyalty, and truth.

Starring:
Rial Ellsworth as Lyman Wyeth
Lee Knippenberg as Polly Wyeth
Jilllian Walzer as Brooke Wyeth
Ryland Moore as Trip Wyeth
Tracey Egan as Aunt Silda

Don't miss this Broadway hit where love, loyalty and the cost of telling the truth collide!

🎤 TEN MINUTES.

That’s all you get.

Ten minutes to make us laugh.

Ten minutes to prove your friends were right when they said, “You should totally do stand-up.”

Or ten minutes to discover they’ve been lying to you for years. 😂

Either way, we want to see it.
