When the stock market crashes in 1929, Bill W. becomes a hopeless drunk, and his wife, Lois, is unable to force him to keep his promise to stop. Meanwhile, Dr. Bob Smith, a surgeon, drinks in secret.

Road to Rouen by Anne Welsbacher | November 16-20, 2011
Meg and Stuart, the daughter and former husband of world famous composer Suki Schulman, have been called to Suki’s Paris apartment for the reading of her will by her attorney and longtime companion, Solange. A surprise clause in the will stipulates that Meg and her father must perform together a new, never heard, Concerto written by Suki—or forfeit any proceeds from Suki’s estate. This means Meg must return to the music she abandoned as a child prodigy pianist —and face her estranged father, her surrogate mother Solange, and memories of her mother and her bitter Chicago childhood. Meg balances a career as a businesswoman and a new life in France. But the piano, and the relentless control of her mother, still haunt her nightmares. Now Meg must literally face the music and come to terms with the ghosts of her past, and of her future. Directed by John Boldenow.
