Stories: A Tragedy in Two Acts of Nonsense" is an absurdist comedy
about a dysfunctional family and their Thanksgiving "guests." Bastian
returns home for Thanksgiving with news of "joining the service."
Mother suggests he join a gym. Bastian's news takes a backseat when
his sister, Rissa, suddenly decides that she's pregnant, and though
not yet showing, expects to deliver "any minute now". Both children
are then bombarded with Mother's news of an older brother that they've
never known about, Thom, who has returned home for Thanksgiving from
the war. Things are further complicated with the arrival of the
mysterious, young Abigail, who has simply stopped by to drop something
off: her newborn baby. That is, until she discovers the baby's father
might be in the house. The play explores how stories help fill voids
in people's lives caused by death, loss, and dysfunction.
