THE STORY: In Washington D.C., a widow named O is trying to figure out whether life is worth re-engaging with. In her path are the 1968 riots, the first Gulf War, the Freedom of Information Act and herself. There's also an archivist named Keith, a cop named Perry and a kid named Cleo. And finally, there's the question of just how much about anything do we really need to know.

"A stirring new workBelber's intelligent script is seamless; a bitterly funny parable in which the allure of knowledge - and of love - has inexorable consequences." - The New Yorker. "Strong talk and sinewy structurethe ninety-minute narrative's strands twist into a noose from which there's no escape for the characters." - Star-Ledger. "Belber's play is cleanly constructed, his characters well-defined, his humor-spiked dialogue refreshingly natural." - NY Times. "A terrific new play." - TheaterMania.com.
