The play directed by Emmitt Thrower is hilarious but really touches on issues regarding old age and senior homes and asks the question is it for everyone? What are some of the reasons people wind up in these places? It brings to light how diversity in upbringing or social status is not a wall that prevents friendships or understanding from taking place. The well conceived play is timely in its message of generational separation and degrading of the family responsibility concept.
