Leo-Joseph Connell is a wandering soul at 21, biking across the country when a sudden tragedy strikes and sends him from Washington State to Manhattan; alone on two wheels. Leo seeks refuge in the familiar home of his 91-year-old grandmother, a keen-witted confidant, Vera, whose wisdom and irascible demeanor are just what he needs. Amy Herzog’s heartfelt comedy tackles issues of isolation, belonging, and navigating family matters in the modern political climate. “Herzog’s... humor, honesty and narrative subtlety make this a rarity: a family play that avoids sentimentality or sitcom shtick.” – Time Magazine
