When the Great Depression cost his family their fortune, Victor Franz (Michael Muldoon, Yorktown Heights) gave up his dream of higher education to support his father. Three decades later, Victor has returned to his childhood home to sell the remainder of his parents’ estate.
Victor’s wife Esther (Melinda O’Brien, Yorktown Heights, who also directed the play), his estranged brother Walter (Richard Troiano, Monroe), and second-hand furniture appraiser Gregory Solomon (Bruce Apar, Yorktown Heights) all arrive with their own agendas, forcing Victor to question the true value of his sacrifice. Stage managers are Emmy Schwartz and Nan Weiss (both Briarcliff).
