About the Play: Retired couple Ethel and Norman Thayer spends every summer at their home on Golden Pond. This year, their adult daughter visits, bringing along her fiancé and his 13-year-old son. The rocky relationship between father and daughter, the generation gap and the difficulties facing a couple in the twilight years of a long marriage, all combine to give this play a unique insight into the modern family. A beloved theatre classic that is touching, funny and warmly perceptive. On Golden Pond is written by Ernest Thompson.
