The morning of a toast to Lane’s engagement to a woman winds up tearing at his family’s open wounds. He has about as much patience for his younger sister’s protracted recovery from her near downfall as she has for his seeming escape into matrimony. The homeless man she brings to the celebration only complicates matters. Their mother and older sister, each in their own way, see the man differently. Is he a savior or sacrifice? Only the morning willl tell.

At one family dinner, humor, pain, and love are all on the table—whether you’re ready or not.

The Studio presents staged readings of selected past First Look plays by our Studio playwrights, reimagined and reworked with your input. Seven plays will be presented after revisions have been made based on the feedback the playwright received from the First Look audience. As always, participation is FREE (or pay what you can) and you can tell us what you think and feel about the revised plays.
