About the Play
Howard and Sam, two American Asian men in their 60s meet in a Honolulu cemetery, with Howard visiting the gravesite of his mother and Sam visiting the gravesite of his husband. They strike up a conversation and share their experiences as primary caregivers. Will it lead to a possible relationship? They still have love to give, but Howard is still the caregiver for his father and Sam is still grieving the loss of his husband. Are their best days behind them?
