Realistic
after all the terrible things I do
Returning to his Midwestern hometown after college, Daniel, a young gay writer, takes a job at the local bookstore he knew as a child. After he and Linda, the Filipina bookstore owner, begin working together, they discover they share a dark connection that goes much deeper than a love of literature. A gripping and intimate new play explores the dark side of ordinary people, second chances, and the price of forgiveness.
