A powerful new production of a play from playwright Scott Organ and director Seth Barrish that critics have called "timely and ground-breaking" and "a worthy addition to dramatic literature."

Originally slated to be presented as part of our OriginKC: New Works Festival in 2020 and cancelled in the early days of the pandemic, we are honored to give this captivating new play its first full production.

An apartment on the 19th floor. Edith has been waiting for Darren to finish his amazing-fantastic-wonderful project for a while now. The kids don’t call enough, and when they do, they seem full of accusations. All she wants — it’s not too much to ask, is it? — is to sit and have some tea with her husband, someday, when he’s done with building his masterpiece. Meanwhile, outside their apartment, the waters are rising, rising, rising…With humor, grace, and beauty, this absurdist tragic-comedy will stay with you long after it ends.
