Set in a rum shop on the Spice Isle of Grenada and peppered with music that defines a culture, Blooming in Dry Season tells the story of Fitz, a failed Calypsonian, who faces losing everything when he and his wife, Rose, butt heads over their daughter Garland’s path in life. A gifted steelpan player, Garland has been offered the opportunity to tour with the most famous Calypso group in the Caribbean, but Fitz fears the outcome will repeat his own disappointments in life. As tensions grow and secrets are revealed, the family struggles to mend broken dreams and find their lost harmony.
