“Courageous, funny, emotionally walloping; in every way, remarkable.” - Boston Globe

In this special comedy that will prompt you to wonder about what makes us laugh, you will meet an intriguing ensemble of characters. Norman loves doughnuts. Lucien is hesitant and unsure. Barry is a self-styled golf pro. Arnold is a worrywart. They sound just like us or our friends. But these four loveable mentally challenged young men share a home where little struggles sometimes become momentous and very funny events. As they strive for a normal life, you will laugh out loud, cry at their setbacks, and cheer their victories. This play surprises you with its genuine humor and gently tugs at your heart as it gives a startlingly strong and humorous voice to those too rarely acknowledged by society.

“A sweet-tempered comedy.” - The New York Times
