No one should be alone in winter.

This bittersweet play explores how a past action impinges on the present and the enduring connections between two people in the winter of their lives.

An affectionate look at polyamory and the modern family. Emerson’s dating Sawyer, who’s married to Monty, who’s dating Ray, who’s also dating Avery, who’s married to Emerson. And their friend Keegan lives with them too. This is a show about a family — Venn House, six people who chose one another. Sure, sometimes poly people’s problems are about relationships. Sometimes they’re about jobs, or money, or haunted antiques. And sometimes family is even more complicated than it seems.
