Married couples Karen and Gabe and Beth and Tom have been best friends for years, raising their children, sharing their summers at Martha’s Vineyard and dreaming how they will grow old together. Yet one evening at dinner, with Tom going out of town, Beth breaks down and tells Karen and Gabe that her marriage to Tom is falling apart. Unable to travel due to a storm, Tom finds out that Beth has broken the news without him, contrary to their agreement, and is furious. Tom visits Karen and Gabe and presents his side of the story. Now, each one now begins to wonder whether their lives were just lies, their relationships over, and their dreams only fantasies.

Synopsis of Play:

Reading of the Will has never been this hilariously sinister . . . or this filled with outrageous, cut-throat family members all vying for the millions left to unlikely heirs. You’ll meet the various Tomb Family members, one by one, each one more bizarre than the last. Be prepared to be ‘serenaded’ by werewolves, ‘entertained’ by Julius Caesar, and even ’embedded in the garden’ by a sweet little old aunt who plants more than just seeds in her flower beds. By the end of the show, there are more corpses than live members left in the cast. All is revealed as the plot twists and turns to its surprising conclusion.
