Months on End

How do relationships evolve, get stronger, and fall apart over time? Craig Pospisil’s Months on End is a journey through the angst and humor of marriage, divorce, and death as the lives of eight young adults intertwine over the course of a year. Each of the play’s 12 scenes represents one month from January through to December, a sort of theatrical time lapse during which the characters mature, grow closer, grow apart, and figure out what really matters in their lives. The play is a romantic comedy, a sitcom, and a domestic drama in one. Readers and audiences will easily recognize, and perhaps relate to, the very human-feeling characters: there's the embittered Elaine, the hapless Walter, and the aloof Heidi, all gravitating around Ben and Phoebe, the engaged couple who aren’t quite yet at peace with the idea of spending the rest of their lives with each other (and each others’ oddities). Months on End is ultimately about a group of people on the verge of something…they’re just not quite sure what.
