Molly and Lawrence met when she was a student in his writers workshop. Shortly thereafter, they were involved in a romantic relationship until a traumatic incident disintegrated what they had. Molly and Lawrence have not spoken in nearly ten years since. Now Molly is moving away and wants to reconnect with Lawrence before she leaves the state. While begrudgingly, Lawrence agrees, allowing her into his home one last time where they discuss their 30 year age gap, process long held regrets, and bring to light the pain of things left unsaid. This story aims to explore the complexities of different relationships in our lives and how grief and guilt can manifest in different ways. While nothing is simple, the struggle of the human condition and the power of closure makes the pain and process worthwhile.
"Start From Here is a poignant exploration of love, loss, and the weight of unresolved emotions. With tender and nuanced dialogue, the play offers bittersweet closure while leaving lingering reflections on relationships and the passage of time. The writing is rich and layered, with dialogue that feels authentic and charged with subtext." - Review by Suzanna Bowling and her team
