"Dirty Dishes"

"Dirty Dishes": A New Drama About Love, Loss & Family

"Dirty Dishes" syphons all the heartaches and headaches, joy and drama of one exceptionally challenging year of playwright Amanda Brooke Edwards' life into an autobiographical drama, which now makes its premiere on the Addison Theatre Centre stage. It was a year that took this ordinary family and placed them in extraordinary circumstances -- from a mother's very personal losses to a daughter's way of dealing with heartbreak and a father's seeming indifference to it all. And all the while, the dirty dishes are still piling up in the sink.
