The play is set on Zoom, where a fictional family that had previously been featured in performances gathers through a video call.
Between 2010 and 2014, Richard Nelson produced four shows that premiered during significant events in American history: the 2010 elections, the 10th anniversary of 9/11, Obama’s re-election, and the 50th anniversary of JFK’s assassination. During the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown, the playwright and director revisited the fictional Apple family, who had featured in those earlier plays, to bring them to life through Zoom video calls in three new shows. This particular play serves as the conclusion to the trilogy, where the five actors engage in lively dialogue and humorous banter from their respective homes.
