a new play by Michael Bérubé
Alice arrives to help her mother Margaret after an accident that has broken Margaret's hip, and finds that Margaret is hip-deep in old newspapers, mail, receipts, and assorted flotsam. Alice sets about cleaning out the house-- but as the house gets neater, their relationship gets messier.
