About the play
The scene is a country home in the Berkshire Mountains of New England, where three generations of the Whitaker/Frye family have gathered for the summer. The center for all of them has always been the willful matriarch, Josephine Whitaker, who still bustles about energetically, tending her garden and issuing orders to the others, even though she has long since given the house to her middle-aged daughter, Bess Frye, and her husband, Watson. The ultimate focus of the play is on the once indomitable Josephine, who is edging into senility and, in the family's view, must no longer be allowed to live alone.

A warm-hearted, funny and eloquently written family drama which blends humor and compassion as it comes to grips with the problem of how best to provide for the family’s aging, and perhaps senile, matriarch.

“…a witty and winning play…” —New Haven Register.

“Not only is the dialogue believable, it is immensely energetic. The substance of the play is serious, yet marvelously funny touches give the characters individuality and depth.” —The Bulletin.

“…It’s as fine a play as one is likely to encounter for quite some time.” —Darien News.
