by Jen Silverman

Directed by Nakeisha Daniel

JUST ADDED!
COMING April 4 – 27, 2024

Sharon (Joy Vandervort-Cobb*) is recently divorced and needs a roommate to share her Iowa home. Robyn (Sharon Graci*) needs a place to hide and a chance to start over. But as Sharon begins to uncover Robyn’s secrets, they encourage her own deep-seated desire to transform her life completely. A dark comedy about what it takes to reroute your life—and what happens when the wheels come off.
