ABOUT THE PLAY: Kap’s reluctantly back in Queens for Sam’s wedding — but tying the knot isn’t the only thing on Sam’s checklist. With friends Ish and Mel along for the ride, the crew dives headfirst into a weekend of ’90s throwbacks, childhood flashbacks, and a few emotional landmines. But as old wounds resurface and one very unexpected guest shows up, their nostalgic trip down memory lane takes a sharp left turn.

An MFA graduate in Playwriting from Indiana University Bloomington, their work includes I never asked for a gofundme, Walter Mercado Presents: A Queer Puerto Rican (Not Just) Christmxs Spectacular, unqle play, and 30 Seconds. Their plays have been developed with the New Harmony Project, Breaking the Binary, Fresh Ground Pepper, American Stage, Seattle Public Theatre, and others.
