Frank D Gilroy

Published by Samuel French Inc

6 Male 3 Female

This engrossing drama covers eighteen months in the life of the Benti family during 1942 and 1943

The household is ruled by Mrs. Benti, a prescient and iron willed widow, and includes her three adult children: Carmen, Nettie, and Eddie as well as Carmen's illegitimate son Willis whom the others orbit like the sun

Eighteen year old Willis is mentally impaired and in a wheelchair. He appears both younger and older as he presides in often startling and humorous ways over the conflicting dreams, desires and passions that ebb and flow about him

The family appears to be making noble sacrifices in Willis' behalf, but each is actually using him for selfish ends

"A drama of soaring beauty and power ... sprinkled with comedy" ~ Reuters

"A hauntingly chilling portrait.... Gilroy knows how to write for actors" ~ N.Y. Post

"First class" ~ WCBS TV
