Description

What happens when the “other woman” becomes your roommate? What happens when she starts to confide in you about her affair?

From the playwright of “A Common Man’s Guide to Loving Women,” comes a claustrophobic drama, set in the Black community of Toronto’s Bloor and Bathurst neighbourhood, which challenges the distance between deception and redemption.
