A poignant play about the ways, both sudden and slow, that lives can change irrevocably. After Callie meets Sara, the two unexpectedly fall in love. Their first kiss provokes a violent attack that transforms their lives in a way they could never anticipate.

    This well written play directed by Alicia Davidovich centers on two women who have to deal with their growing emotions and a gay bashing incident. Michelle Beyda plays Callie, a jaded New Yorker, and Veronika Olah plays Sara, an adventurous midwesterner. These two are simply excellent in portraying the lead characters. K. Michael Riley and Linda Piccone do a fine job in supporting roles. This is definitely a play worth seeing. I highly recommend it. Collapse

    I felt like the actors gave me a wonderful gift in this show; everyone was present, honest, and listened to each other on stage. The actress playing Sarah was absolutely amazing, and really had the audience in the palm of her hand. Her sunny, quirky character was absolutely spot on, and every movement she made was specific and just...completely REAL. Callie was outstanding as well. The contrast of the two ladies was very apparent and effective. It was wonderful to watch Callie take the journey of falling in love with Sarah. Once again, the actress was specific and in the moment constantly! WOW! George(Alex Hero) was charming, funny, and sweet. I enjoyed watching the interaction between him and Callie.The actors playing Peter and the Detective were fantastic, and Mrs. Winsley(Linda P.) was amazing as usual. An overall fantastic production. These actors did an amazing job. Go see it!! Collapse
