Curve of Departure

Cyrus abandoned his son, wife, and father more than a decade ago, and they’ve gathered for his funeral. In a single hotel room far from the rites of wakes and visitation, they share a bathroom and try to keep their secrets—or at least the peace. Curve of Departure traces the trajectories of these disparate relatives as they say a last goodbye and face their own uncertain futures. The acclaimed playwright and director of The Wolfe Twins return to Studio with a new play about the shape of the American family today.
