When Allan's perfect day in the park is interrupted by a chance encounter with a beautiful young woman, his life is instantly ripped open, testing the limits between love, loyalty, family, and unfortunate delusion. Told with humor and truth, Playwright Matt Owen's break-out new work, THE

CAESAR) and Ana Nogueira (THE BOY IN THE BATHROOM at NYMF). The design team includes John Jalandoni (Scenic), Jennifer Fisher (Costumes), T. Rick Hayashi (Lighting), Yusuke Namiki (Sound), Kate Freer (projections), and Dina Paola Rodriguez (Stage Manager).
