Three adult brothers are living together once again in their childhood apartment, struggling to redefine themselves while pursuing their desires and coping with the void left by their parents' deaths
Drastic shifts in their dynamics occur after a neighbor named Stella becomes a part of their lives
A sweet and sour look at the illusions we have about what makes us happy - and what is within our power to change
"Things We Want has to have the highest cool quotient of any show in town ... a thickly whimsical comedy of despair ... with sloppy drunk scenes, nervous breakdowns, self-lacerating monologues with poetical flourishes, and a battery of stinging quips" ~ NY Times
