SYNOPSIS

Sara and Callie's first kiss should have been the start to a new romance. Instead, their lives changed in ways neither could have predicted. Jumping backward and forward in time, the two are forced to look at the little moments that built their relationship and decide if they were meant to be or if they should cut their losses. Don’t miss this Obie- and GLAAD Media Award-winning play by Diana Son!
