The Only Children

by Monika Bustamante

Carousel Lounge

About the Play

A woman seeks lessons from a pool shark, hoping to avoid the cycle of nightmares that visits her every year on her birthday. But will his game of 8-ball be a match for her buried secrets, or will she be sunk?

Come to the Carousel Lounge and enjoy free cupcakes by Delish and live music by Whiskey Priest after the show. Not to mention a fantastic new play! Yummy!
