Martin is debt ridden, gambling addicted, pissed as hell, and dying. Unfortunately his three estranged children couldn't care less. Instead they argue with each other and everyone around them in a desperate struggle to do the right thing and mend their rapidly deteriorating lives. As the world around them crumbles, they are each surprised to discover family in unexpected places. Whether a spouse, a friend, or a chance encounter with a random stranger blood is often Thinner Than Water.

The creative team includes Lee Savage (Set), Bobby Frederick Tilley II (Costumes), Japhy Weideman (Lights) and Jeremy Lee (Sound). The Production Stage Manager is Pamela Salling.
Thinner Than Water will play the following performance schedule: Tuesday-Saturday at 8:00 p.m., and Sunday at 3:00 p.m.
