Over the course of five years, playwright Gary McNair spoke to people at all stages and in all walks of life on the subject of regret. This play marks the results of those conversations. A collection of scenes from the silly to the profound, that charts our relationship with the things we should have done but didn’t and the things we shouldn’t have done, but did.
Suitable for ages 14+
Content guidance: Strong language, description of violence, mention of alcohol and addiction, one scene of a mugging and stabbing and references to death.
