As Tolstoy said, "All happy families are alike; each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way." In The House in Scarsdale, playwright Dan O'Brien traces the roots of his family's particular unhappiness to learn why his parents and siblings cut him off years ago. The more Dan learns about his family, the more mysterious the circumstances surrounding their estrangement become, until his world is shaken when rumours surface that his real father might be another member of the family. Is his pathological pursuit of the truth worth the risk? Or should he follow the advice of a psychic and make his life a never-finished work of art? 410 0$aOberon modern plays. 606 $aFamilies$vDrama 606 $aFamily secrets$vDrama 606 $aFamilies$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01728849 606 $aFamily secrets$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01737651 606 $aDrama & Performance Studies 606 $aPlays, playscripts$2bic 606 $aTheatre studies$2bic 608 $aDrama.$2fast 608 $aDrama.$2lcgft 615 0$aFamilies 615 0$aFamily secrets 615 7$aFamilies. 615 7$aFamily secrets. 615 4$aDrama & Performance Studies. 615 7$aPlays, playscripts. 615 7$aTheatre studies. 676 $a813.6 700 $aO'Brien$b Dan$c(Playwright),$01482557 801 0$bUkLoBP 801 1$bUkLoBP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910793725103321 996 $aThe house in Scarsdale$93860424 997 $aUNINA
