The Month Before the Moon Little Theatre

Meeting at their twentieth fifth Vassar reunion in 1994 are four women in their late forties: an African American United States senator from Texas, a farmer from New Hampshire, an East Side New York wife and a successful songwriter, also from New York City

Two of them are accompanied by their children, a son and daughter who plan to enter Vassar in the fall and are along for the pre frosh orientation. The other two characters are ghosts, one a former classmate and the other the farmer's father

Each of the women has a particular motive for attending this reunion, something each must complete. For one it is suicide, an act that interrupts the teenagers' love making and staggers the rest into actions they would not have otherwise taken and revelations they would not have otherwise divulged

By the final curtain a great deal is revealed about the last quarter of this century and the women who graduated from Vassar in June of 1969, the month before the first human walked on the moon
