Written by Mac Rogers
Directed by Jordana Williams

Cast: Mac Rogers as Owen, Rebecca Comtois as Jess & Kristen Vaughan as Ruth

A three-person relationship wouldn’t be most people’s cup of tea, but for Jess, Owen, and Ruth, it seems to work. So they decide to make it official: Ruth moves in. They figure out how to make it legal. It’s only then that the three spouses learn that marriage – especially in a scarily changing world – isn’t any easier for three than for two.

No generation has been as publicly reviled, praised, misunderstood and analyzed as Millennials.

Written and performed by Jen Spillane
