It is the 1880s in an Irish neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York. Harold Cullen arranges for his two handsome Irish sons to meet two lovely Irish sisters. The two sisters are daughters of Harold's boyhood friend from his days of growing up in Dublin. The play opens with a dramatic event in 1886. Scene by scene we work our way back three years to 1883. We learn that however important destiny may appear, the journey of getting there is more magnetic. Nothing we say or do in life is small or tossed away. In fact, everything we say or do is gargantuan. But who of us grasps this fact of life as we laboriously move forward in time?

Imperfect

By: D. C. Shaftoe

Shaftoe's willingness to put her characters in real danger ups the stakes, for a vividly realized adventure. -Kirkus Reviews Zachary Marek is an Ontario police inspector who has crossed daggers with the wrong villain while working as a member of an international drug task force. After he is imprisoned and marked for death by his powerful foe, Albanian Mafioso, Burim Gjojak, Zach is presumed gone forever-until his brothers mount a daring rescue and return him to his wife and son. But after months away, home is not the sanctuary that Zach hoped it would be. His son, Gideon, recently diagnosed with autism, is a mystery of volcanic meltdowns and violent opposition to change. His wife, Christie, is a stranger. Determined to embrace the challenges of autism and win back Christie's heart, Zach embarks on a cross-country journey from Niagara to Wyoming to reconnect and build a new beginning with both of them. However, Gjojak doesn't want Zach to return to any life at all. As he builds a web of betrayal and deceit around Zach, Gjojak sets a lethal snare that not only endangers Zach's life, but also the lives of those he loves. Imperfect is a gripping tale of danger and deceit and of love lost and found again as a police inspector attempts to defeat a drug lord once and for all and find the second chance in life he so desperately needs.
