A Play By Norm Foster

Imagine yourself sitting in your backyard, enjoying the breeze on your face, and anticipating cracking open a cold one. It's quiet. The kids—the thirty something kids—have finally moved out and you're free to enjoy your new alone time with your spouse. But this sense of calm is fleeting because suddenly your kids have literally fallen over the fence into the yard and they need help.

This is just the beginning of Norm Foster's hilarious and poignant Hilda's Yard, which features the family Fluck in the 1950s. There's Hilda, the mother, Sam, the father, and their adult children Gary and Janey. Gary is on the run from an angry bookie, Beverly, and Janey has suddenly left her husband. To top it all off, Gary’s girlfriend, Bobbi the trombonist, drops in for dinner. Sam is not too pleased since he just bought a new television set, his quiet evening with his wife is ruined, and he found out he might be losing his job! And that'sjust the start of his day.
