Navigating the Expectations and Judgments of Generations.

Long-time neighbors Theresa Phelan and Roberta Lavecchia enjoy sharing family gossip over a plate of rainbow cookies. Theresa’s son Tim is back in town and newly engaged to a Korean American woman. Roberta’s son, Robbie, lives at home and is smarting from a divorce. Her daughter, Daniela, is waiting for her boyfriend to propose. This is what the mothers believe, because these are the roles they recognize. They are almost entirely wrong. Generational beliefs and expectations form the core of every family. Two blue collar New England families grapple with a spiraling crisis that threatens relationships and their very identities.

Three actors take on six roles, crossing both generation and gender.
