Klappentext

A heartrending yet hopeful play about two men’s parallel desires to build a secure foundation for their families even as everything around them is falling apart.
Samuel D. Hunter’s latest play introduces us to two men who at first glance have nothing in common: Ryan is undereducated, awful with money, and reeling from a painful divorce with the mother of his child, while Keith is polished, financially savvy, and the gay single caretaker of a foster daughter. When Ryan seeks Keith’s help to secure a loan and buy back twelve acres that formerly belonged to his family, the two men bond over their love of their daughters, as well as “a specific kind of sadness” that emerges in the gap between their dreams and their realities. While never shying away from the inevitable heartache of life on the margins, Hunter’s play ultimately affirms, if not the existence of God, then at least the possibility that something sacred can emerge from the connection between two people.
